Around the House Bouquets
/Even though we have trees and flowers blooming outdoors now, I’m still purchasing a bouquet of cut flowers in every grocery order. I divide them into smaller vases and put them in the rooms where we spend the most time – the kitchen/breakfast area, our offices. They are cheerful and great subjects for photography.
Sometimes I take the whole vase of flowers…
But I enjoy the zoomed shots even more, often going into high key type photography with backlighting.
Other times I try a very dark background. It makes quite a difference!
There are times that I like the color and curls of older flowers.
The pink-green-white is my favorite color combination.
I remember buying some tulip bulbs that were those colors 25 years ago…planting them around the dogwood tree at the house before last; I wonder how many years after we moved away they continued to bloom.
