A square crop was perfect for this image of coneflowers. The tones are what I love about this macro photo. And of course, there is tons of flower love here too – these babies are drying in the sunlight.

Through the weeping branches.
I’ve been asked about my custom header. Yes, it’s one of my nature shots.
One of my favorites in fact.
I processed it in sepia to go with the decor in my bedroom and it now hangs on the wall. Purty isn’t it?
2010 Calendar – In softness, beauty and light.
Let there be light!
Chrysanthemum Bling!
The chrysanthemum is such a lovely autumn flower. This macro image really captures the bling!
All a-glow.
From last month, a bright shot of sage blooming. I chose this image for the month of April for my 2010 calendar.

It’s in the tones today.
I have no idea what this plant is, but I really like the tones in this shot. Wish I could identify all my nature images: ought to send this shot to the local botanical gardens where I took it, they may know. Anyway, I’m using this macro shot as the September image for my 2010 calendar.
