Blue Aparajita Photography of this flower captured on an afternoon.
Nature's universe brings indescribable tranquility to our lives and when that nature is captured in front of us in its colorful form it feels as if time has stopped On such an afternoon when the sun is leaning in the western sky a light softness spreads in the air I got lost in a garden covered in greenery where blue Aparajita flowers were blooming With the camera in hand I had only one goal in mind To capture this wonderful beauty In some pictures I feel like Aparajita flower whose scientific name is Clitoria ternatea is a type of vine The dark blue color of the flower is as if it was painted by nature itself The color of the flower is so bright that it is not only in the eyes but also deeply engraved in the mind Each petal seems to be mixed with the shadow of the brush stroke The light purple and white hues of such a perfect creation made me feel like I was standing in front of a living painting painted by an artist.
That afternoon was different There was a light coolness in the air The birds were returning home and the surroundings were enveloped in a strange silence The silence was broken only by the sound of the camera shutter clicking The beautiful form of Aparajita was captured with each click The dew drops on the flower the light coming through the gaps in the leaves and the green leaves in the background were creating a wonderful composition In each frame this flower not only comforts the eyes but also calms the mind I stopped sometimes while taking pictures and looked at it in fascination Its softness depth of color and perfection seem to hide a silent message of life Beauty never comes loudly it comes silently and deeply.
There are many who have forgotten to see the beauty of nature in the hustle and bustle of technology perhaps this kind of afternoon is what we need a moment where we come back to ourselves and merge with nature The pictures I took are not just of a flower, but of the nature of that afternoon and the reflection of my mind The play of light is very important during photography The golden light of the sunset and the blue color of the Aparajita complemented each other In some pictures the reflection of sunlight on the flower petals was seen which made them brighter and more alive Some flowers were newly blossomed some were half dead The reality of nature emerged in this life cycle.
This afternoon's experience taught me that true beauty is captured by patiently waiting for the light to change the wind to stop or the leaves behind to be in the right place before taking each picture This waiting is the real joy of photography Aparajita is not just a flower It is a symbol for many In Hindu culture it is used for worship Many people use it in tea or medicine due to its medicinal properties But for me that day's Aparajita was a poem of nature each line of which was written in color and light Through photography we not only capture the moment but also the emotions environment and feelings of that moment in the frame of the lens The pictures of Aparajita that I took that afternoon are now not just memories but an inspiration to love nature give it time and appreciate its silent beauty.
