Description
A single wild daisy basks in a hint of diffused light filtering through the trees above. Found on a ramble through the forests on top of Blue Knob Mountain, PA, in late summer 2023, the tiny beauty seems to glow with hope … with expectations … with sweetness.
As Laura Ingalls Wilder said, it is the sweet, simple things of life that are the real ones, after all.
The daisy is said to symbolize purity, innocence, new beginnings, joy and cheerfulness.
Fine art and product purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... wall art will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."
Image captured with the Nikon D7000 and the Nkkor 105mm f/2.8. Not created using Artificial Intelligence.
