Botanicals

From the vivid colors of an orchid and the way dew rests upon a petal to the stories that lie secretly within the weathered trunk of a solid Sequoia ~ getting out in nature has to be one of our favorite things to do in life.  Whether we are taking a hike through the desert or stretching our necks as we march along in a heavily wooded forest robust with towering giants, I love capturing the vibrancy and details the flowers, trees, and other botanicals hold within their form.

This one single, vivid blue cornflower, otherwise known as the bachelor's button (Centaurea cyanus), caught my eye as we gallavanted through a local Arizona garden one day, The white bloom behind it also grabbed my attention, but the composition ultimately lent itself to giving the daisy a sense of distance, as if to keep itself just out of the line of the "bachelor's" sight. I was mesmerized by the cornflower's petals striking contrast with flowers in the distance, making it clear that he wanted to be seen.
