Wooly and Raeski – Some of the coldest water on earth.  Absolutely gorgeous

Mother Earth Series:  Floral Macros

060314 cffc (2)
This photo was published in a magazine in Holland. It is an American Beauty Dahlia and one of my favorites.

This current series is all about our glorious mother earth and nature.  This week is the long awaited  Floral Macros.  This topic was suggested by Serendipty.  I’m also writing a two part series on my Tips and Tricks specifically for floral macros, see my Part Two and Part One posts.

Part One and Part Two.

The Next Series – Geometry

  • Things with Edges
  • Cooked & Squiggly Lines
  • Straight Lines
  • Squares and Angles
  • Circles and Curves

How It Works?

Most weeks I will come up with a topic. Feel free to write me with things you want to learn about.
Go through you photo archives and see what photos you have that fits the current week’s challenge, or better yet grab you camera and take a new photo!

ENJOY and have FUN.

My Entry for the Week

Since I’m doing new flower every day, I thought I would highlight some of my favorite floral macros I’ve taken over the years.  It’s getting close to the water gardens opening, so I did pick a couple of lotus and waterlilies.  Guess I’m getting anxious for them.  ENJOY!

  91. Insanely beautiful Cee. The bearded Iris is jaw dropping. I learn so much about images and composition from checking out your work. I can almost smell the scent of that rose with the detailed water droplets on it. Masterful.
