celebrations

Passover, Easter, spring, birthdays, snow, births, passings.  All things that we humans celebrate.  Nature opens and gives us gifts with which to commemorate, such as these narcissus.

In the first photograph, snow is apparent in the lower right hand corner, a welcome sight on the dry mesa.





As a photographer, I have always appreciated even overcast for shooting environmental portraits, but that same sky is also excellent for flower closeups, providing a most interesting backdrop.




Thanks to Ingrid and Robert for these lovely spring surprises!


until next Monday,

DB

  1. These look like paintings perhaps watercolors. In image two especially the flowers are isolated from the nearly absent background as if they're photographed on seemless. It's a very effective treatment, one that I could see becoming a series. Nicely done, Daryl.
