19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Mobile
The Beginning and End

I took the photo of this beautiful flower in the year of 2017. The flower was given to me from a family member at my grandfather’s funeral. I thought it was the most purest thing that represented a beautiful beginning and ending. I was very into photography as a 13 year old child, and decided to take this gorgeous snapshot on an iPhone 4!
