The God Loves Your Beauty

 By: Naliah M. Cairns

The flower is a symbol of aspirations that arise from natures purity.

      For this series of digital photos I used a Kodak DC3200 one- megapixel with a 35mm equivalent lens. The circular schemes were created with a Sigma 22- 70mm lens. I held the lens- butt against the camera to magnify the attractive details of the inflorescence. The digital format agrees with the subject matter magically. The flower’s purpose, to bare seeds, is similar to digital camera’s perpetuation for the perfection. The placement of the LED-viewing screen on most models allows the photographer to use her total sense of vision. The camera has a CCD (charge- coupled device) light sensor. The sensor’s photosites (7-8 microns in size) convert light waves into photo- electrons, which are later processed into images inside the camera’s math processor. We smell light by a process of recognition that takes place in the olfactory bulb of the nose. The olfactory senses smell through receptor neurons similar to a digital camera’s sensor in that both photosites and neurons relay the flowering plants message. This process is like a coconut in that a flower’s color and patterns as well as scent are illustrative expressions of each other. The coconut’s shell typifies light- waves. The coconut seed’s flesh, a symbol of asomatous intent, can be eaten. The coconut milk is ambition. The digital representation of the focused flora heals and endows understanding to the one who experiences the felt presence of the loving Goddess.
