The Impatiens flower, also known as “Busy Lizzie,” has a rich history and symbolism. Its origins can be traced back to Africa and some parts of Asia. These delicate flowers hold significant meanings in different cultures around the world. In Eastern cultures, the Impatiens flower symbolizes motherly love, while in Western traditions, it represents patience and positivity.
They are beautiful enough to be the focus of photos without manipulation, but I wanted to add my little touches, as seen in these two photos.
Search for your own expression of a photographic subject is an entertaining way to spend some time while it’s hot outside.
Well done! Love the saturation and the colors. Interesting the represent patience but called impatiens, which literally means impatience. I love them.
Thanks, Monte. I hope you have a great 4th of July and the rest of the week as well. 😊
Wow, those are vibrant aren’t they! Enjoy your July down there, Earl and I’ll try to do the same here and not complain too much about the humidity. :-)
Their blooms are bright and colorful, but they require a lot of water. Thanks, Joe. I hope you and yours have a great Fourth of July. Let’s hope the exceedingly hot temperatures we’ve experienced recently aren’t harbingers of the rest of this summer.
