I have been working on this silly project that

involves flowers. In the course, I wound up

with several pictures that I just did not use.

This was one that I actually liked. No one will

ever really see it unless they stumble upon this blog.

I was trying to come up with some contrasty flower photos the other night using old images and I was not having much luck. After awhile I gave up and throughout the week I kept nudging myself to go shoot some more. Today when I got to work I found a beautiful bouquet of yellow roses on my desk. Later I received another bouquet with star lillies and then later another bouquet of pink roses. I had not expected much to happen on this birthday, however as one can see I was pleasantly surprised!

Now I have kind of just been playing with images until I get tired. I guess the thing about art is there is always going to be someone who likes something. For whatever reason. Images mean different things to different people. 

I was sick last week and tried to go out and shoot on my day off. I kind of ran out of energy so I only got off a few shots. This was a pretty bloom that I started transposing over another image. It pretty much took on a life of it's own. Kind of wierd and interesting at the same time I suppose.

Some people just have a flare for drama! 

Too much negativity has seeped into my blog, so I am moving forward on a positive path. I have always liked this shot, very ornamental. Perfect for a fresh new start.
