Photo Journal/Photo Challenge: W is for Whimsical, Weave, and Wild

It is Tuesday in our part of the world – time for Frizztext’s A-Z Photo Challenge. Letter this week is W and so I chose the theme Whimsical, Weave, and Wild as we share the flower photos of our featured photographer Elena Yamamoto Flores once more.

Our featured photographer, Elena Yamamoto Flores

Whimsical

“The earth laughs in flowers.” 
 Ralph Waldo Emerson

Weave

“In a rich moonlit garden, flowers open beneath the eyes of entire nations terrified to acknowledge the simplicity of the beauty of peace.” 
― Aberjhani, Elemental: The Power of Illuminated Love

Wild

“She cast her fragrance and her radiance over me. I ought never to have run away from her… I ought to have guessed all the affection that lay behind her poor little stratagems. Flowers are so inconsistent! But I was too young to know how to love her…” 
― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

How about you? What is your W photo this week? Leave a link in the Comments Section and I’d be sure to visit your post.

Myra is a Teacher Educator and a registered clinical psychologist based in Al Ain, United Arab Emirates. Prior to moving to the Middle East, she lived for eleven years in Singapore serving as a teacher educator. She has edited five books on rediscovering children’s literature in Asia (with a focus on the Philippines, Malaysia, India, China, Japan) as part of the proceedings for the Asian Festival of Children’s Content where she served as the Chair of the Programme Committee for the Asian Children’s Writers and Illustrators Conference from 2011 until 2019. While she is an academic by day, she is a closet poet and a book hunter at heart. When she is not reading or writing about books or planning her next reads, she is hoping desperately to smash that shuttlecock to smithereens because Badminton Is Life (still looking for badminton courts here at UAE - suggestions are most welcome).
