I took this picture when I was in Salt Lake City, Utah over Thanksgiving. I was in Temple Square, and I looked to my left and saw this really beautiful berry tree. When I looked down, I noticed that the berries were mixed in with these dainty purple flowers.
The first thing that pops out to me in my photo is the contrast in the colors. The way the light hits the berries makes them this brilliant color, almost fuchsia, and I love how that vibrant color contrast with the dull, brown dirt. Also, I feel like the flowers really make this picture. Everything seems to blend in to me, yet it doesn't at the same time, if that makes any sense. I love this photo because it seems designed, but there is no design.
The best part about the picture is that everything was put in the order nature intended. True, the flowers bordering the wall that held the tree were placed there by man, but as you can see in the photo, the flowers began to grow on their own terms. You can see a couple of flowers mixed in with the berries, deciding for themselves where they want to go. Everything in nature seems to come together to create this work of art. The sun is in the perfect place so that you not only see the eye-catching colors of the flowers and the berries, but the sun also shows us the shadow of the tree itself.
