[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the heart was already dead... a gorgeous, large, duotoned bloom of Chrysanthemum.



Tempus fugit is a Latin expression meaning "time flies".
Frequently used as an inscription on clocks to remind us that life passes FAST, tic...toc....

All is fleeting and so ephemeral...
The expression was first used in the verse Georgica written by Roman poet Virgil: Sed fugit interea fugit irreparabile tempus, which means, "But it flees in the meantime: irretrievable time flees".

The meaning is sometimes used less colloquially as: "Meanwhile, the irreplaceable time escapes", expressing concern that one's limited time is being consumed by something which may have little intrinsic substance or importance at that moment.

The flower still full of beauty to me...
I'm fine, hope you are too, thanx, M, (*_*)

Hallo Magda.
Nothing lives forever. It all comes to an end. But this picture can be looked at for a long time.
Greetings and best wishes to Paul too.
Jan

Hi Magda,
it still looks wonderful - I like the light here so much - like a spotlight on the flower.
Thanks and greetings

Wel, dat vind ik op zich al een mooie bloem :
die wiebel-vormen.
( doen me denken aan m'n haar 's morgens :
dan vind ik dat het best LOL )
De kleuren zijn ook heel mooi en dan vooral ... dat stroot-geel
Om maar te zeggen " dat ik ermee kan leven "
:-)))

Groetjes

Jan

Da's weer heel mooi uitgelicht, Magda. De bloem is ok, maar het is de manier waarop je ze in beeld brengt die het beeld maakt, die de bloem als het ware weer terug tot leven wekt.

Hi Magda,
This looks like a painting, incredible colors and textures combined with the contrasts make it stunning, thanks for sharing,
Fran

Excellent note to accompany this vision of the ephemeral nature of all life on our planet. Your image rescues all the beauty that exists in this fading flower. Technically a masterpiece too.

Superb, thank you.

Klein vraagje,
