Like a daisy flower in its prime, we all glow

Walking up from the 9 Beaches concierge and services building (Hi-tide), there is a flower-bed next to the tiki-lanterns/gas flames. Besides noticing the flower-bed, one might not notice how individual and beautiful individual flowers can be and how much emotion they can stir.

The shot focuses on the flower in its prime, but next to it is one that is "over the hill", one that has withered into a fruit and in in a different stage of its life. In the background out of focus are other flowers in various stages of their existence. This setting has many parallels in life, human life and existence.
