This photograph captures a fleeting moment in time for Judy Fulk, who spent several weeks taking snapshots of a giant allium in her front yard. “It is in the process of blooming,” Fulk says, adding that two days before she took this photo, the flower was more closed, and the buds were whiter in color. “I really like alliums and when they are emerging. The tiny umbels at the end of the flower change almost daily. What I like most about this photo is its simplicity. Simple shapes, complementary colors and that it captures a moment in time before the flower blooms.”
