• Perhaps when you look into the heart of a diamond, you can begin to
understand.
Although this photograph captures one beautiful moment of:4this
diamond, no photograph can capture, in split second time, the true nature
of this elusive, spontaneous beauty. Because, every colour is there.
Everywhere. Never seeming to be in the same place twice. Jumping
from a slash of red, to a glintpf green, a glimmer. of orange and yellow,"
then into a flash 'of blue. Over and over -again. With an intensity and a
"fire" that never dies. •,
An ;infinity of prisms and mirrors with no beginning and 'no end.
Created over a million' .years ago, to be alive a million years from now.
Reach out with a diamond, for no matter what size it is, only a diamond
can seemingly hold back the sands of time.,
A diamond is forever
