Years ago I planted bleeding hearts in my front yard. Don't think they lasted the season before they disappeared. A year or so later, as I was sitting in my dining room looking out at our woodsy backyard, I spotted something pink. There wasn't anything pink in the woods before, but there it was beckoning me to come and take a look. So I did. To my surprise, there they were, bleeding hearts growing in the backyard amongst the trees. My best guess is that they didn't like the front yard and relocated to the backyard where they have been coming back every year since!

This beautiful yellow flower is an African Daisy. I planted three of these in different colors in my garden and photographed them as they bloomed. This flower was shot using my macro lens while I was sitting on the ground. Which worked out great with the beautiful colors in the background from the other flowers.

When I took this photograph I was out on a field trip with my camera club. Never before had I seen this flower and the color blue in the petals I just fell in love with! In one of my post-processing programs I tweaked the colors a bit and came up with what looks like flowers glowing.

This image was inspired after returning from a three-day weekend on the cape with other women photographers. There are three separate images overlaying each other, one representing each day on the cape. It was cold and windy but the surf was great. Took lots of photos of breaking and crashing waves one day. Sea grass is the subject for the second day, and on the third day we stayed in and did setups (still life) to photograph. That beautiful shell was one of the setups and represents the third day.

This flower I photographed while browsing around a pretty awesome garden shop one day. I saw this flower that looked like a bird, with the one petal(?) curved around and the buds all gathered on the side like feathers. The two pictured here, the one in the upper left corner is the original and the other one is a negative of the original. These both hang at a friend's home. Two different versions are in the shop.

I believe that I wrote somewhere on this website that I will take a photograph of just about anything that catches my eye! Reflections do and I like to get the shot so that the person looking at it isn’t quite sure which way is up. And then there is post processing of my images. Just playing around with my photo software, trying to learn it, produced some pretty unusual photographs, which makes you (or me) wonder, is it still a photograph? So here are some for your visual pleasure, although if you try to flip your phone or tablet, the image will flip too!
