"The blue and bright-eyed floweret of the brook, hope"s gentle gem, the sweet Forget-Me-Not"~Samuel Taylor Coleridge
I placed the flower on aluminium foil in my mini light-box to try to replicate a brook :)
Some people consider forget-me-nots to be weeds - I love them and let them grow wherever they like in my garden.

I have never thought of them to be weeds. But, I guess some may. Some see beauty in things and people, some don't or just don't give it a thought. Glad you do.

The soft and light bokeh in other parts of your photo, Lyn, made me think your foil trick was actually a brook until I read your post. Thos horizontal lines brushed into the surface really did look like light trails left by passing tiny bits of flotsam and jetsam. Overall quite lovely with a nice effect.

Lyn, I had the intention to rescue them because I thought they were drowning in the brook, 😁 !
Great find and very creative!

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.
