A photo of something unplanned or unexpected is called a capture, and in my opinion, this picture is one of those astounding ones.  The flowers (birdsfoot trefoil) are volunteers:  they were not planted by human hand, but sprouted and were in full bloom in a crack in asphalt, and that crack bisects the handicapped parking symbol as though it were meant to carry a bouquet.  And how was it not crushed by car wheels?  This is a once in a lifetime shot.

Against the Odds

I have tried many captions (Yes I Can; Difficulty is Not Defeat; Strength, Will, Peace) but have decided to let the picture speak for itself.
