I snapped this photo last weekend at my parent's in Maine after a rain shower. There are so many things I love about this image...
I love the hydrangeas in full bloom but out of focus in the background
I love the shades of pink ranging from delicate to rich, and the hints of yellow
I love the water droplets on the outer petals
I love that my mom has the time to cultivate such beauty in and around her home.
I also love that I had five whole minutes to myself to take this photo!
I hope you find five minutes for yourself to enjoy the beautiful things around you.
That is a huge flower! Dahlia's are one of my favorite flowers and I love the pink. I'd like to have a garden someday but my kiddos like to pick all my flowers and bring them to me. It's really sweet but it makes for a bare garden :)
ReplyDeletethanks so much for your sweet note. i just adore the way this photo came out - i think i'm an ok amateur photographer, but every now and again i get a really good one. :) i have a bit of a garden, but i just don't have the time/energy to weed and keep it up the way i should. that's super cute about your kids :)
DeleteGorgeous photo Ang! Dahlia's are so beautiful and the detail in this close-up is incredible. Thanks for sharing this beauty! :)
