My 11/25/25 postcard features a dried, weathered flower head standing in a yard along  Cardenas Drive. The black-and-white treatment pulls all the attention to the textures: the brittle petals, the spiked center, the quiet collapse of a bloom at the end of its season. It’s stark, and strangely elegant.
