Looking ahead ...

 After the Rain
Lily

During January, I thought I would put up a variety of photos I've taken over the last few years - as a record for myself of where I've been so that I can make comparisons as I learn and take more photographs.  I hope to continue to put photos up on my blog, and continue to grow in my photography. I'm finding that this is helping me to improve my work..


These flowers have water droplets on them. They are actual rain drops, but I have sprayed water on other flowers to give the same effect. When you do this, you need to give the drops time to settle so that they look natural.  I've also seen tutorials for "painting" water drops on flowers in post production, but I believe the real thing looks best.


God has put so many different kinds of flowers on this earth for our enjoyment. We could be taking photos for the rest of our lives, and still not take photos of all of the types of flowers in the world.


... my God will meet all your needs 
according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. 
~ Philippians 4:19
