A Bloom a Day

Description

Bloom a Day — Nature’s most beautiful works of art, flowers have reigned for centuries as symbols of love, gratitude, friendship, and remembrance. In Bloom a Day, celebrated photographer Ron van Dongen matches each day of the year with its corresponding blossom. Each portrait is then paired with a fortune that uncovers the meaning of that flower and reveals the personality and destiny of those born on that day. A gorgeous photography book—van Dongen’s work captures the rich color, exquisite detail, and sensual form of 366 different flowers—Bloom a Day is also a delightful book of divination. It’s a lovely gift for seekers and flower lovers alike.

Photographer Ron van Dongen was born in Venezuela, raised in the Netherlands, and studied photography in San Francisco. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
