Description

Pink grass flowers hang raggedly on their stems, often unnoticed, even more often trampled, but they have their own beauty as seen here given a background of teal and blue tones and bark texture. These were growing along the roadside among a variety of other wild flowers and grasses.
I isolated the stems to draw attention to their delicate beauty which is often obscured in the crowd of other wild plants and flowers. The blue/teal background and the pattern of tree bark to give a subtle texture compliments the soft pink tones of the tiny flowers. Behind on the left slowly fading is a third stem giving a sense of depth to the image.
