Flowers (macro photography)

"Crown of Glory"

February 2012, Santa Susana Mountains, California

The flower is a gazania, the beauty indescribable. In this particular image I shot just the very center core of the flower. The core, excluding the leaves, was only about a 1/2" wide. The closer I look into God's creations, the more amazed I become. He is not only God of the big, He is also God of the small. I equally enjoy taking pictures of the vast landscapes of the American Southwest as well as ultra closes up shots like this of the tiniest flower. What an awesome God I serve.
