Amethyst

When I went and photographed this darling family I was at the Botanical Gardens and came early to take pictures of plants, flowers, etc. Here are some purple ones for you…pink ones to come later!

All of the water lilies were in bloom….amazing.

I really loved them…… I may actually print some of these!

Purple berries on some sort of tree/bush.

I love this picture, only the very tips of the petals of the flower are in focus and the rest is blurry, but it makes it look like a painting. So, don’t always erase those not so in focus pics. they can be great too.

Gingers were all in bloom too, its fun to go there different times of the year to see what is in bloom. When I went in April it was a totally different place.

  2. Wonderful pictures - I really like the purple berries....I was wishing I had a "purple"-ish room to put a print in. These would look so nice framed! ;-)

  14. They are gorgeous! I really love the first two because of the contrast between the yellow and the purple, those are the ones I would have made into poster size, matted and framed. But that is just my opinion, and what do I know. :-)

    You have the most wonderful eye... You should sell your nature prints at your photo studio, or in an Etsy shop, I'm sure you would do wonderfully. But again, whada I know?

    Have a great weekend!
