New Flower Series Images

I have been a bit busy planning the move my family and I made last week. It was quite the change for all of us, but I feel we will be better off for it. I have some new images for the Flower Series. Some were created before the move and some after, but they are all very pretty and I hope you enjoy them.

Flower Series 17 -
     This was taken in Texas in my backyard of a Rose of Sharon. I really like the editing on this one as the monochromatic scheme enhances the flower itself.

Flower Series 18 -
     This was also in my yard in Texas, I had a few of these blooming trees (whose name escapes me right now) and the colors were just magnificent.

Flower Series 19 -
     This was from a hibiscus plant in my front yard in Texas, the large bright blooms were always gorgeous and fun to look at. This image required no editing at all, there was nothing for me to do to it to enhance it any more than it already was.

Flower Series 20 -
     This pretty flower I found while on a walk around my new town. I cannot say what type of flower it is, but I liked it right away.


Flower Series 21 -
     The last addition to the Flower Series at this time is this beauty. I found this view in my new town while walking with my daughter and sister. I decreased the saturation then increased it just on the flowers. I then used the Diffuse Glow action to give it the dreamy appearance.

Well, that's all for the Flower Series for right now. I hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I enjoy taking and editing them. Be sure to visit my Gallery for print options on any of these new images and many more. I still have the discounts running for the time being so get them while you can.

New Flower Series Images

Spring is in the air and I have managed to capture some beautiful flowers that are springing up. Remember that all the images shown on this blog are available as prints by visiting my Shop.

Flower Series - 15
     A lovely sprig of Bluebonnets. The state flower of Texas (which is where I live) so I had to add these to the series.


Flower Series - 16
     I am not sure what type of flower this is, but I thought they were very pretty.

Spring Is Here

My roses are blooming! I absolutely LOVE roses, their shape, their colors, and most especially their smell. I was lucky that when I bought my house there were LOTS of roses all over the yard. I have some beautiful pink ones in the back yard that smell just aweome. While I don't care for the color pink much, these roses have to be an exception. Here are some new additions to the Flower Series, I actually debated on starting a series of just roses but decided against it. Enjoy!

Three New Flower Series

Spring is in the air...finally. I have managed to get a few good flower shots already and looking to get even more once everything starts to bloom fully. To order prints of any of these, just visit my Order Page and select the Flower Series Album. I'd link directly to the images, but unfortunately the links change every time I update the albums. Hope you enjoy the new flowers.


Flower Series 5 - a simple daisy from the park punched with color.

Flower Series 6 - a Pear Tree blossom in black & white


Flower Series 7 - Peach Tree blossoms in full color with a simple and understated background.

Flower Series Photography

Flowers are just so beautiful and they are very easy to get great photos of. I have taken a few of the nice shots I've gotten of flowers and edited them up a bit to offer some interesting artistic flower prints. One of my favorites is of a Rose of Sharon that grows in my back yard.
I put a vibrant background behind the mostly pastel colors of the flower to give it more presence and to make it show up better. The vertical lines add a touch of modernization to a beautiful photo.

Due to the cold weather right now, I only have about 4 images in the flower series, but I intend to take a lot more once the weather begins to warm up and the flowers start blooming.
