Moonlit LilySaturday was a really good show. I pulled out a few new Hummingbird images for this weekend and they were very popular.This was another image that caught a few eyes. It was one of the first images I enlarged years ago when I was just starting to think about showing my photographs. |

Backlit AgapanthusLast week, when I was loading my Jeep for a show, I was fortunate enough to catch the sun at a great angle on our little front yard area. On a Saturday my Hound Dog and I would have still been quite unconscious at this time.This is a variety of Lily native to South Africa. It grows like wild around here, and it's beautiful when they really get going. |

Lily BudThis is another one of my "grow your own photo" series. This was actually in my living room. I grew the lilies from bulbs I got while on vacation. |

Pink TigerI have been very happy to find that people really like pictures of flowers! 'Cause I really love to shoot them! Not any surprise I guess but seeing as how I live in a bit of a tourist area I thought the local attractions (the Harbor, The Mission, The Beach) would be of more interest. The intriguing thing is that the locals are the ones who are more interested in the local attractions! |

Walking in CarmelI thought about taking a photo like this before I found the specific subject. My fish-eye lens is an interesting tool, but you have to think a little more about the composition when using it. Since it is so wide compared to a "normal" lens or your normal point of view, it makes everything look further away.My idea was to put flowers in the foreground with a larger subject behind them. Since the lens can make a larger subject less interesting by including too much. You have nothing to focus on then. The lens was less than an inch from the flower at the bottom of the photo. |

Lily CurvesAnother of the beautiful things as close as the back yard. This was right after the sprinklers went off, on a foggy morning. The dim light made the background dark and everything a little softer. But this shot was one of only a few taken as the fog parted a little which made the drops a little brighter and sharper. To see the difference in the light you can see another shot here, taken only minutes earlier. |

Abstract LilyWell this was one of the few days I missed posting. So I'm trying to go back and put something nice in these little holes. This photo was taken at the same time as this image. |

Lily DropsSo, I was sitting at my computer (as I am told I do too often) when my best friend said "Hey grab your camera and come look at this!." Seems that the sprinkler had reached the new Calla Lilies that just came up in the back yard. About a half hour later and a couple rolls of film I was back at my computer, but much happier! |

Canna Close-upOne of my favorite subjects, flower closeups. This was actually the theme of my first show at the Santa Barbara Public Library in August '04This one is a special favorite because the plant was a gift from my mom over six years ago, and it is still going strong. |
