minimal

I love leaf vein patterns and added a touch of color by including a bud of a blue geranium.

liquefy

I decided to play around with the liquefy function in Photoshop. The original picture is several buds of an amaryllis. It was fun!

blue water iris

Here in Colorado we are on the roller coaster weather wise, from warm to hot to cold today and lots of rain. The rain is good - Colorado always needs a drink, just not the hail that sometimes accompanies it. The land iris have come and gone and now the water iris put on their show. It's too bad they don't last longer into the summer season. That's why I take pictures!

It's June already!

The yellow water iris have started blooming, they have interesting rust colored lines on the petal fall which make up the pattern in the middle. I keep experimenting with new camera and old to see if I can tell the difference between them. I'm not sure I can.
