AN ABUNDANCE OF FLOWERS

in #photography6 years ago (edited)
I am a little behind schedule this Saturday. It is close to noon. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Our weather is starting to heat up hear in North Idaho. Now it is time to adjust to the hotter temperatures. We have a 45 - 50 degree swing from high temperatures during the day to the lows overnight. I am gradually collecting photographs of my garden for a future post.



To clarify the temperature swings I did not consider Celsius. With that in mind yesterday it was Yesterday it was 95 degrees F = 35 Celsius then at night 42 degrees F = 5.55 Celsius. And the hotter temperatures come later in Summer.



Today I have more flower photographs to share. This week I am finding it a little easier to choose my first photograph. I do not know the name of the flower, or even where I took the photograph. It might be one of many in my wildflower garden. I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised that the lighting was such that I caught the shadow of the pestle.

I always like to add a rose in my posts. I have no favorite flower, but everyone seems to love roses:

My next photo I took with my android phone when I was at my daughter's home. I took photos of many of her flowers, but using them sparingly. I just loved the color blends of this hanging baskets.

This next flower I am not sure of. I believe it was when we visited Manito Gardens in Spokane, Washington. I used my Macro lens to get a very close view of a flower. I just cannot remember what flower it was.

Next up is a Begonia that was in a greenhouse at Manito Gardens:

Here is another flower that I took the photograph at at Manito Gardens, in the Japanese Garden. It was on a tall shrub:

My final photograph is of a small wildflower that was in a mix we planted last year. Might even be the same type of flower the butterfly was on last week:

This brings us to the end of this weekends post. I trust you will enjoy all or some of the photographs I shared. As always I appreciate all the support for my posts and photography. Have a great weekend and upcoming week

I am using a Canon EOS Rebel T5 for all of these photographs, except where noted.

Upvotes and resteem are always welcome. In the event anyone wants to use one of my photos please ask and give me credit...I did see recently where someone did use one of my photos and a bot called them on it.

So it is the start of summer at your side? Our summer is gonna finish soon and then we will be shifting to the spring. :) The temperature here is about 35C and some predictions of rain, so it will be going to lower more!

Among your all beautiful pictures I liked the king of flowers the Rose the most. The white flowers have a very nice shape of petals. I am amazed to see them.

All your photographs are very professional and amazing piece of beauty! Thanks for sharing with us. :)
