"It was just another night
with the sun set
and the moon rise not so far behind
to give us just enough light
to lay down underneath the stars
listen to all the translations
of the stories across the sky
we drew our own constellations"

Jack Johnson - Constellations

To answer a question from the comments: This is just a flower floating in my birdbath surrounded by pollen. :)

After looking at it for a bit, the swirls and larger pieces of pollen reminded me of stars in the night sky with the flower being the moon.

Smiles.. gorgeous Jen and completely in tune with that song!! I've heard him sing that live a couple of times under starry skies... so to see your image in relation.. just another magical moment in the bond / connectedness that Jack Johnson creates.

flower and textures and processing are beautiful.

I like the subject and the framing, perhaps better with a deeper DOF

I like this - a spare and enigmatic image. To me, it expresses quietude.
