Before I was really into photography I was not a big fan of flower shots. Just not my style I suppose...all that frilly flower stuff was "not me". But as I have been using my camera every day I have discovered that I am "one of those" photographers that is drawn to flowers. Ugg. I swear I am not frilly (though I did paint my daughter's room pink).
It's just that flowers are easy subject matter! I don't have to chase them around and I can work on my skills, playing with aperture and settings and angles and what not. I think I hovered over these flowers for quite some time and they sat perfectly pretty for me. No complaints. No "CHEESE!" No directing or posing...
And lately I've been sucked into another worm hole of post processing and textures and layers and, oh my, it is just too much. I can't get enough!
So. My apologies if you are NOT a flower girl (or boy). My apologies if it all just makes you gag.
I promise to keep the flower postings at an infrequent minimum. But for now, I am giving in to the cone flower and loving every minute of it! Thankyouverymuch!

i especially love these cone flowers! i agree with you... lately i've been all about flowers... not on purpose, just drawn in. i realized that spring might be my favorite season for the fact that there are just soooo many of them!
i really like the way the textures look with these photos. great creation!
I must admit I have a real soft spot for flowers and can spend an entire afternoon photographing them ;) but I know what you mean.
Thanks for leaving a comment on Secret Notebooks yesterday. I've enjoyed finding your blog - great photos here!
