Flowers bring untold beauty into our lives - they make happy times more memorable, and offer us comfort when we're grieving. Being a flower lover myself, I found the time and effort that went into this video truly remarkable. Its maker filmed lillium, hibiscus, carnations, orchids, dandelions, lilies, daisies, alstroemeria, peonies, and nigella damas over the course of nine months, taking no less than 50,000 shots of them in the process. In fact, the final cut only has one-tenth of all the shots taken incorporated into it. View beautiful flowers like never before in this video:
