Floral Photography

1 Reply

I like walking around our yard taking pictures. When everything is in bloom as it is right now, it makes it all the more interesting and fun. Here are a few floral photography shots:

Aster
I love the color of these asters

Cosmo
Cosmo in the Sun

Flowers and blurry figures
I like the effect that close ups give to the background figures- chickens and Schnoodle

Hibiscus close up
We have hibiscus type flowers in Colorado too!

Rose of sharon side
We have a Rose of Sharon tree that is about 7 feet tall and blooming prolifically!

Wet Mum
This mum that we just recently bought reminds me of a “Tequila Sunrise”
Sad Dewy Rose

This rose picture brings up feelings of sadness, the dark shadows, the water droplets on its petals and the downward face

Wild Flowers
And this one of happiness -my favorite

Which one is your favorite?  You can also click on the photos to enlarge.

Hope you all have a lovely Labor Day Holiday!

Autumn Life around the Yard

Leave a reply

I love gardening, so it is sad to see our tomato plants and roses slowly wither away and die. The only plant that is great in the fall are mums, or chrysanthamums (sp). The white chicken is still the only one to lay, but the black one is getting big. She looks like she is about double the size of little miss leghorn. Here are some pictures of the cooling Colorado weather. Britton and I have decided to go to Puerto Rico in January with a closing -or not. We need to get down there, and this weather is ever the convincer.
