Solstice Rising: Earth, Sky, and the Spirit in Bloom
Solstice Rising is a virtual exhibition of photography and digital art by D. Annette Ball that traces the full arc of the seasonal and spiritual journey from the spring equinox—when day and night stand in sacred balance—through the lengthening days of renewal and growth, to the radiant peak of the summer solstice, the longest day of the year. It is a visual meditation on nature’s unfolding, the quiet blossoming of life, and the soul’s parallel ascent toward wholeness and illumination.Through luminous images of wildflowers, golden skies, and ethereal landscapes, Solstice Rising invites viewers into a journey of light and spirit. Each piece becomes a step along a pilgrimage—a reflection of the earth’s awakening and the human longing to rise, bloom, and become.Ultimately, Solstice Rising is a celebration of the living connection between earth and sky, time and transformation, and the sacred pulse that guides all things toward the light.
