Coneflower Bud

"A bud is a flower-to-be. A flower in waiting. Waiting for just the right warmth and care to open up. It's a little fist of love waiting to unfold and be seen by the world. And that's you." (Christopher Paul Curtis) I love the fractal pattern of this bud which will soon be a beautiful orange coneflower.
