This time of year is amazing for wild flowers in my area. A tapestry of purples, whites, oranges, blues & yellows are scattered throughout the fields near my home. Of all the wild flowers around, I love Queen Anne’s Lace & Woodland-edge Sunflowers & Chicory. Yesterday when I stopped to photograph these on the edge […]

I’ve never met a lily that I did not love. Never! Outside of oriental & Asiatic lilies, calla lilies are my favorite. Especially large white calla lilies. Calla lilies are romantic, regal, art inspiring, delicate, complex yet so simple and African. I recently posted on Twitter that I find calla lilies to be beautifully vaginal […]
I made a quick trip to Cousin Dee’s house the other day & noticed how beautiful & lush her begonias were. I was hesitant to ask for a few clippings but I got over it quickly because I just had to have a few. I LOVE begonias!!! You can see more of the images here. […]
When it comes to my macro floral photography, the closer & more abstract the better.

The fragrance: Sweet The petals: Many & delicate The color: Bright & vibrate The history: Rich & wide spread
When my poppies are in bloom I get so excited. I don’t know what it is about them but they make feel like a kid. I wish that they bloomed all summer but that’s not the case, so I will enjoy them for the week or so that the will be around.
I planted violas in one of my gardens last year & the bloomed throughout the summer. To my surprise, this lonely yellow fellow greeted me today while I was weeding. What a nice bright surprise. Coincidentally, it’s my grandmother’s birthday; we called her Mommie. Everyone called her Mommie. Her kids, grand kids & people in […]
Some of the best things in life are pink; like my favorite Egyptian cotton socks, cotton candy, strawberry ice cream & dogwood flowers.
