Spring!

Spring! It finally arrived on Friday! Isn't it wonderful? Unfortunately, it may take a few weeks to really feel and see the significant changes. But at least it's a start, and we can officially say "It's Spring!"

I have decided to focus today's imagery on a very symbolic object that represents the season.
Spring flowers - more specifically - A Tulip.
Yes, just one.

This collection includes the representation of a single tulip.
Each photograph gives this single beauty it's own interesting perspective.
In one sitting, I was able to use this simple form and create "floral portraits" that depict a uniqueness within each image.

Color Saturation







Sepia toned.









You don’t have to look far to see signs of spring. The budding trees, longer days, signs of sprouting bulbs and symptoms of Spring Fever infecting many of those around us!

Beauty can be found everywhere.
Single it out, focus, get close, and look - really look at the artistry that abounds!
Happy Spring!
