The Magic of Macros

For years now my gardens have been my blank canvas. It's a never ending work in progress and always full of surprises.

I love photographing the flowers and have many times used them in my graphic art. One of my favorite approaches is to go into the garden after a rain and take some macro shots. It's amazing when you see the perfection of simple flowers and sometimes weeds this way.














Take time to smell... and macro the flowers!

Today in the garden...

It's a bit cooler today so it seemed a good time to have a walk around the gardens to see how things were growing. I took some pics along the way.

 Hope you enjoyed your walk through the gardens...
