Organic Skyscrapers

This is a gorgeous stand of Lupines blooming in a flowerbed in front of a home in the small town of Kewaunee, Wisconsin.

These flowers caught my eye one day as I drove by the home where they reside. I made note of them and determined to come back sometime. A day or two later, I was in Kewaunee to photograph the sunrise. After I’d gotten all the sunrise I wanted, I remembered the lupines. It was still early without much natural light because the surrounding trees were blocking any effects of the recent sunrise. To minimize any blur due to the low shutter speed required by the low light conditions (1/10 sec), I set my camera on a tripod to capture this shot.
