One photo a day challenge: Day 206.

One of the best things about having a variety of interests both in and out of photography is the variety it puts in life and art.

One day I am trying to train my lens on people running through the woods at high speeds.

The next day I am photographing subjects that can’t move even if they wanted to.

Today’s photography subject was back to the focus on the flowers out in the sun on our back deck at home.

I spent a little time photographing each of the flowers on the deck.

The look of this marigold struck me. I never happened to see a marigold at this stage of growth before.

I love how all the flower petals are curled up into little tubes.
