Description
On a clear day, love is all around you . . .
A crystal clear capture of these dusty pink hydrangeas reminded me of this nostalgic tune. The textures of the flower really popped out in the photography taken in the morning with dewdrops still settled on the petals.
Throughout history the hydrangea has been especially significant in Japan, where many believe the flower originated. According to a Japanese legend, the hydrangea became associated with heartfelt emotion, gratitude for understanding, and apology after a Japanese emperor gave them to the family of the girl he loved to make up for neglecting her in favor of business and show how much he cared about her. Pink hydrangeas are especially associated with genuine emotion because their shape resembles a beating heart.
