The New England Aster is one of my favorite wildflowers. I like them because they appear in late summer and into the fall. The New England Aster petals folded up like this give the flowers a different type of look. Normally the petals are extended out to the sides from the yellow center. Focusing on the center with the petals protruding forward creates more depth to the image. Photo details: Nikon D500…. Read More

Hedge Bindweed Looking for a subtly beautiful flower to photograph? Look down. Follow the ground. It might be right next to your foot. The Hedge Bindweed grows like a vine along the ground. Spreading out amongst the other foliage. The flowers can pop up anywhere there is available space. At the edge of a yard or along a river. I love how the light is striking this one flower and the rest… Read More

Fringed Polygala. I never knew these tiny little flowers existed until I moved to where we live now. These tiny little wildflowers grow in the same area at the edge of our woods every year. The Fringed Polygala never seem to expand or grow larger. They never seem to fill in more space. They grow in small groups and as individuals. Fringed Polygala flowers pop up in seemingly random locations. They will… Read More

They grow to fit the environment. I try to… Read More

Tiny little flowers. They can be so interesting. These Bluets sometimes seem to just pop up through the ground at random. There are some areas where they push up through the ground one flower her and one flower there. Scattered in a field. Other times the Bluets appear in the landscape in little clusters as featured in this photograph. Photo details: Nikon D300. Nikon 300mm f/4. Focal length 420mm. ISO 400. 1/500… Read More

I really love these yellow flowers. They grow wild along edges of environments. Roadsides. Fields and forests. Just about anywhere. The Bird’s-Foot Treefoil usually begin to appear in the early summer. The flowers grow low along the ground. They form this spreading vine like structure. To get macro shots of these flowers I have to get low to the ground. This image is one of the more close up views I have… Read More
