Photography

Today I decided to go take pictures of flowers. I often get the inspiration to do so and follow the thought that pops into my head that day. Some days I end up not going to the place I thought of, but on the way there I will find amazing flowers to photograph. Today I ended up going to photograph at a church just as a lady there was watering the flowers. She told me how much people love the black eyed susans she was watering and led me to the flowers she thought I might like photographing the best.

Since she was watering at the time I photographed, alot of my pictures from today have water drops on them which ended up looking unique. Here are a few of the pictures I took today:





I did these in a semi manual mode changing only the aperature to quite a low number, somewhere in the 4 range. I love the bokeh of a photograph when the aperature is set between 4 to 6.

To read more about how I am inspired with photography check out my Wizzley page Floral Light Switch Covers  You can also see an example of one of my flower designs at this amazon link.

Your photos are so beautiful! I love the picture you paint of a woman watering flowers at a church. It almost sounds like the start to a novel.
