One photo a day challenge: Day 319. I always wonder how well my plants will grow once I bring them inside. All the plants are in different states of health from the onset of cold weather once I brought them incside. Some still had flowers. Others had gone to more of a dormant stage. Some of the flowers were still actively producing new flower blossoms. One of the more hardy plants, the… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 317. During what was mostly a rainy and gloomy day the sun peaked out for just a moment. This was my cue. Time to make the photos. I wanted to get outside and see if any of the few flowers still out there were blooming at all this deep into fall. There were still a few blossoms on one perennial. And there were also a few… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 316. Often when I photograph flowers I try to isolate a single flower blossom. Or even more specific I try to isolate a single part of the flower blossom. This is especially true when I am photographing flowers at home. Today I wanted to try something different. It was the perfect timing so I had to go for it now. I just happen to have a… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 312. There are some new blossoms on the flowers I brought inside. One pink flower. Another plant with a red flower. Setting up my indoor lighting options. Using a white background to help create nice clean look. The white background also helps reflect more light onto the subject. I repositioned the lighting and the background to get the composition that I wanted. I took a variety… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 271. We arrived home at just the right time. Put the dogs out. Got them fed. Then it was sunset. I wanted to try incorporating some of the flowers from our flower box into the image today. What do you think? Did it turn out ok?
Yet another rainy day here in upstate, New York. But as I have said over and over, that means I am blessed with the opportunity to photograph more flowers with water droplets. Today For many of the shots I actually took a few flower pots off the porch and set them out in the rain. It was still raining and I didn’t want to go out in the rain. And some of… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 263. It is always interesting photographing plants. Unless they are in a small pot I can move around. I have to work with the plant how it has grown. These trumpet shaped flowers were protruding out towards the west. I liked being able to fit these two blossoms together in one photograph. Using a shallow depth of field and choosing the point of focus delivered an… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 256. As is often the case, I had no particular plan for my daily photography practice. As evening set in a rain storm also settled in. I have mentioned countless times that one of the best things about rain is photographing flowers after the rains. I looked outside. Then I felt outside. Is it still raining. No. No it is not. I gathered my gear. Nikon… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 250. The sun had set on another day. But, it wasn’t dark out yet. Time to create some images. I was hoping to photograph some of our flowers. That is, if there was still enough light. The goal was to photograph the flowers without artificial light tonight. Using my Nikon 60mm macro lens. The f stop was set as wide as possible. Still a little too… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 247. I have been out exploring all week. So I have not been home to photograph my flowers growing at home. It is so fun to see that even after all season I still have flowers just blooming now.
