Wondering if a flower were praying... That should be the best performance it can show, I think.

Laudes (Lat.) = Morning service, Morning prayer.

I think this blossom is beautiful. The colors is so smooth. I love the tassels, which are welcoming the light. That's so lively morning when I toke it. I used Canon Powershot A650 IS in macro mode to shoot this guava's flower.

Sri Gading Flower

Special things may call sweet memories. This flower is one of mine. It is "Sri Gading" flower (Latin: Nyctanthi Flos) which calls sweet memories about my past grandmother. She loved this kind very much. When I was a boy, I always accompanied her picking them up from the only tree we had in the front yard. She could make them into a beautiful and fragrant lace of necklace for my little sister.

My beloved grandmother has passed away. The Sri Gading tree was also cut off. For years, I had not seen the flower until the day I found it in my neighbor's garden. I could not resist myself taking picture of if! Sweet memories about my grandmother re-nourished my soul and turned me into a set of delightful feelings that support my life whenever I see the picture.

Oh, Lord my God, give her Rest In Peace in your holiness. Amen. [skd]
