The beauty has gone

The beauty has gone by Pasi Parkkinen.
These particular flowers are full of life at the summertime, now at the November all life and colours has gone ...

I agree, simple beauty does remain!! Love the little ice crystal in the center. I think all of us in the northern hemisphere are entering a season of mourning for the passing of our beloved summer. Great "funeral" shot!! ;-)

nah, i don't agree - i just think the beauty has changed. :) winter is an incredibly beautiful season in my eyes. but if you're referring to this in-between autumn and winter ("november") that we're experiencing now, then i see your point.. X)

great shot! it feels like you found a little treasure there, something that most people happily walk past without ever noticing. the general colour(less) scheme works really well and makes this, in my eyes, a very beautiful picture. the only thing that bothers me a bit is that the flower with the ice crystal is so centered.. i would maybe have moved the whole frame a bit to the left (so the flower is further to the right). but, i really enjoy this photo.. well done and thanks for sharing! :)

Yeah, it's so that without this grey and dark season we wouldn't perhaps put that much value to the summertime..., for the photographer this is a little bit bad time - especially if you have a daytime job, so there's no light left when you are not at the office.. ;)

You're absolutely right about the crop - I was thinking about that, and did this kind of crop, but just don't know why ... :)
