This image of a lone wood anemone still blooming as one of the few of many peers evokes emotions of modesty and tranquillity. The wood anemone is brought within a serene setting of the dark forest floor with shiny leaves on which the rising sun adds reflections. The wood anemone is framed by soft elements that direct all attention to the flower but still provide a nice filler to the whole. The various subdued colours make for an image that fits into anyone's interior.
