There’s a wooded path near my house that takes about five minutes to walk in one direction. It is amazing what’s to be found in such a short length.

I’ve been admiring the morning glories in my landlord’s garden for a while now. Amazing how those vines progress across the yard and how the colors of the flowers morph over time.

Not sure why but today I felt compelled to slip into the garden with a pair of scissors.

Stealthy though I felt, the landlord doesn’t mind anyone cutting a bloom or two.

I may have cut a few more than that.

Handling the blooms, photographing them … it was a nice way to start the day. Hope you have a good day too. 😉

Remember the post with individual petals? Well, here is what they looked like before they fell apart. 😉

I have been having great difficulty photographing sunflowers. Somehow the image of the whole flower is never quite right. Finally I decided to stop worrying about the mythic image and enjoy the beauty of the abstract.

In sorting through photos for various projects, I came across a cache of purple. Now I have the urge to buy some purple marbles at the toy store, an eggplant and some grapes from the farmer’s market, and maybe pick up some purple paint chips from the hardware store. Who knows what purples may appear in the near future. Maybe I’ll even photograph a purple crayon. 😉
