I like the idea that the nature always takes back its rights on the stone, the wood and all the materials. It is the life which wins on the death

It's extraordinary the strength that fragile plants as flowers can have to be able to pierce the rock and live few things... this bouquet is moving in its beauty !

One is always amazed when a beautiful bloom appears in what looks like the harshest of places for a plant. I love the texture and brown color of the crater as well.
