I layered in a crack in the sidewalk. I'm amazed how much of the fabric of the umbrella the camera picks up. That woven texture adds a painterly touch that goes well with the blurred forms of the flowers. Anyway, that's what I tell myself!

This is so beautiful. Subtle. I love the layering - looks like I am gazing through a screen. Loving the colors too. ;)

It looks like the flowers are giving the umbrella an exploratory poke, and one is looking back.

'What do you think this thing is, Lily?'
'I don't know Lium, it feels soft and stretchy, I don't think it's dangerous, but it's been popping up a lot lately.'
'You don't think any more are sneaking up, do you?'

now I feel that you are morphing, or entering into a chrysalis stage.

Love the texture from the umbrella and the overlay works well, the flowers look painted.

Fork or umbrella, the colors are still electric.
