a = agglafastical by quietpurplehaze

a = agglafastical

This was a word invented and used by my dear father http://365project.org/quietpurplehaze/365/2012-01-12 for anything which he found to be amazing. He was good at words as well as photography and music.

And I find my white orchid re-flowering profusely to be just 'agglasfastical'. Funny how stuff comes into your head when you are stuck on 'a for apple'!
This is beautiful Hazel. Great capture. Fav
