Peony: Taken with an iPhone 4S.

About this photo:

The peony is one of my favourite flowers. I planted this variety in 2010, and waited for blooms. The blooms came and went. This year they seemed to bloom early. I would walk past and take in their beauty. Finally, I thought to take a photograph. And I am glad that I did, for soon after I took this photo the flowers wilted away with none other to take their place. Just green leaves for the rest of the summer. 

Moral of the story? Don’t wait for another time or better light. Make the most of the moment you’ve got.
