Gentle Reminder
Temperatures are cooling and summer flowers are fading as autumn moves in. This image of a zinnia can serve as a reminder of the beauty that will return.
A little post-processing fiddling gave this image its soft feel.

Cosmos in the Weeds
Among a patch of tall grasses, this purple cosmos makes a bold stand.

Cosmos Dreamscape
This purple cosmos bloom makes a final stretch upward before settling down for the night.

Honey Bee on Sedum
Near sunset last night, I stepped outside for a moment…with my camera. I paused to watch and snap this honey bee. It was meticulously moving from blossom to blossom on a sedum plant in the flowerbed near our house.

Glamour Red
This is a poppy from our garden. The red was so vivid it reminded me of a glamour model’s bright red lipstick.

Covering the Cosmos
We planted a patch of wildflowers next to our vegetable garden. Unfortunately, the weeds are out performing the flowers. Out of the several varieties that made up the wildflower mix we planted, the cosmos did best. This is one that attracted some of the local wildlife.

Morning Lace
Bright sunlight, muted by an early morning fog, created a nice silhouette effect on a stand of Queen Anne’s Lace. If you look closely, you can see strands of spider web stretched between the flower stems.
This image may seem familiar. It’s a cropped version of the photo I posted on August 2nd, entitled Queen’s Morning.

Sunny Disposition
This sunfower seemed to stand out from the crowd. I believe a full field of blooming sunflowers is a universal mood picker-upper.

Twirling Floral Skirt
Beside my wife’s flower bed, sprouting from a crack in the sidewalk, we have a cluster of sweet, tiny, pink poppies that appeared on their own.
I took this photo in the early morning hours. I call it Twirling Floral Skirt because it reminds me of a young girl spinning around to make her skirt flow out.

Packed House
This is a field of sunflowers in full bloom. Just imagine what a difficult jigsaw puzzle this image would make.
I titled this one “Packed House” because it reminds me of people in a crowded theater as seen from the stage.
