Artist's Comments

To see a World in a Grain of Sand,
And Heaven in a Wild Flower.
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour.

-W. Blake

This shot is, if nothing else, a personal triumph. One of the most satisfying moments in photography is capturing the quiet beauty of the ordinary, the small things in the big things. If you ever have the chance to visit the amazing Parthenon in Athens (truly astounding... between walking from the front to the back of it, I *almost* forgot it was just a single building), spare some time to look down. I found these tiny flowers by some rock crevices and that just made my day. :rose:
