Description
A dark blue dragonfly rests on a bright yellow daisy, balancing delicately on slender legs. Its sheer wings extend upward at a jaunty angle, blending with the mottled background of green and blue grass. The dragonfly stars in this image, on a stage of daisy petals. Their clarity of focus contrasts with the soft abstract of the grass in the distance behind them. That grass, blurry and dark, is the backdrop of the stage set. The curtain behind it is figured with tall blurry stripes, depicting grass. Without the solidness of the golden yellow daisy, the dragonfly would go unnoticed, lost in the colors of the mottled pattern behind it. But the daisy gives needed contrast, with its closeness, its color, its solidity.
