Orange, the Color of Love
Six Word Photo Story: Freestyle
‘Fragile orange wind in the garden.’
This lyric by Adrianne Lenke, the lead vocalist and guitarist of the band Big Thief, spoke to me when I was photographing Gulf fritillaries one morning recently. I didn’t remember where I heard or read this verse — a quick Wiki search led me to the source. My mind does seem to store fragments of found beauty.
Orange is the color of my love / Fragile orange wind in the garden.
One butterfly had a portion of a wing missing. A metaphor for the fragility of love?
