Nana's Peonies

When my grandmother died, I dug up a couple of her plants. One was a peony that I felt was very beautiful. I planted the peony and enjoyed the fact that something she loved was growing in my yard. It is something that connects me to her spirit and reminds me of her love. At first the plants were small and there were only a few blooms. This year, the flowers are breathtaking. I have photographed them at every possible angle. The best photograph I have is the one you see here. It was just after a rain and the lighting was perfect. Nana, I miss you and love that I was able to bring a part of your spirit here to grow.
