Moment of Grace

By Deborah Nyman

A pink and cream waterlily opens against the dark mirror of a still pond — and a dragonfly, unbothered and unhurried, claims the center for itself. This is the kind of image that requires patience, stillness, and a little luck: everything perfectly aligned for a fraction of a second before the dragonfly lifts away. The deep navy water background gives the bloom an almost otherworldly luminosity, while the dappled lily pads anchor the composition in the natural world. A study in contrast — dark and light, stillness and flight, the fleeting and the eternal. Stunning as a single statement piece or grouped in multiples. Fine Art Giclée reproductions available.
