“Purple Tulip”

“Purple Tulip”

“There is no greatness where there is not simplicity, goodness, and truth.” 
― Leo Tolstoy

As the world becomes more complex, on a seemingly daily basis, I find myself drawn to simplicity.

Even the title of the image, while quite simple, suffices. This is a single blossom from a larger bouquet and a found myself liking the isolated flower more than the whole arrangement

I enjoy spending time with the subjects of my photos, often moving around them and finding the angle and light most pleasing to me. I may be breaking some composition rule, but if it resonates with me then, hopefully, somebody else sees it for its beauty as well.
