Flowers of Briercrest Farm
This summer in much of Canada has had very high daytime temperatures. I was able to spend some time in a beautiful flower patch that seemed to thieve in the heat. Thank you to the keepers of the flower patch at Briercrest Farm that allowed me to photograph these gems as I wandered. The lilies put on a magnificent show. I hope the flowers brings you as much joy as they did my camera and me! Enjoy!

Impressionist Art
It’s been very hot in our area these past days/week, so time outside is limited. The pups and I are staying in a lot. To pass the time and exercise the brain, I’ve been working thru some online courses on various subjects. The late is one was on Photographing flowers. Very enjoyable and I learnt quite a few things. Now I wish I’d planted more flowers and have added that task to my 2025 list of things to do. One of the things I learnt was how to take photos of flowers that look similar to the Impressionist paintings. One of the elements of Impressionist art is “Painted scenes that looked fuzzy and unrefined”. I think I’ve accomplished that in my photos. A adobe presets were used on a few of this shots. They were fun to do and I’m happy with the results. Now to find more flowers! Click on the image and then right click to move thru the gallery.
