Bees on Zinnia Garden Tidal Inlet Gansu

by Karla Reed

Hard noon light flattens the colors of a dense zinnia garden bordering a tidal inlet in Gansu. Winter has stripped surrounding trees, leaving bare branches against a sky heavy with brief rain. Bees rest on the bright petals, their bodies blurred by motion yet frozen in predatory stillness. Water droplets bead on the green stems and muddy ground, reflecting the intense glare. The soil looks damp and dark, against the vivid reds and yellows of the flowers. Rain streaks cut through the air, visible as faint lines against the bright blooms. One bee rests on a petal edge, its wings folded tight.
