Alstroemeria blossom
That bouquet my sister brought last week yielded another photo I really like. Here is an alstroemeria blossom with its floral friends. I do like daylight best, but sometimes even incandescent light can be lovely for flowers.
Visit Today’s Flowers to see other flowers, and Shadow Shot Sunday for more shadow creativity. Macro Monday has close ups, and Mellow Yellow Monday showcases golden yellow. Have fun!
I really like this one a lot, so I’ve tagged it Best Post of the Week. Check out some other self-selected posts. Fascinating.



Gorgeous and wonder to see!
Gorgeous, colorful shadow shot! Such lovely flowers — and they look so good this time of year when I’m really, really tired of gray!! Have a great week, Sara!

How pretty they are and the subtle light and shadows are so nice.
lovely flowers! Great use of light to highlight the petals
What a gorgeous Color Carnival shot!
By the way, I downloaded the new photo thumbnail linky to try out for Color Carnival next week 🙂
You have such a great eye and always take the best photos of flowers! It’s such a pretty bouquet and I bet it smells lovely too! Hope you are keeping warm in chilly Seattle 🙂
there is nothing better than a fresh flower when you want to admire beauty. Sometimes with a little creativity, such a flower can become even more stunning with the hand of an artisan.
Beautiful shot of the flowers. Well done!
Outstanding image of real beauties Sara. Thank you.
Gorgeous color and texture.
Wonderful photo! I usually end up photographing the wee flowers in a bouquet, too!
