A beautiful insight into an exquisite image. Love it!
Thanks Misha
Liked your descriptive word “confetti” here. Great visual word to see the “bigger” picture.
How beautifully described. Here in Amsterdam, I’ve been finding the corpses of bees, with our barmy warm weather here this year, they have definately been outliving their time…
