Description
Daphne, Greek Goddess of Water. Daphne was the daughter of the river god Peneus. Apollo chased down the maiden, desperate for her love, but she wanted nothing to do with him, and she ran from him endlessly. Soon, she grew weary in her running and that Apollo would ultimately catch her. Fearful, she called out to her father for help. As all gods of water posses the ability of transformation, Peneus transformed his daughter into a laurel tree. Suddenly her legs took root, and her arms grew into long and slender branches. Photograph taken at the Ballarat Botanical Gardens in Victoria, Australia. � 2014-2015 ChrisArmytage, Photographic Artist.
