Flowers

I love taking photos of flowers, but I never know what to do with them after uploading them to my computer. They sit in a folder called “Nature Anthem” (named after this song by Grandaddy) which I only ever open to add more photos of flowers or trees or animals that have caught my eye; even as I’m taking the photo I wonder why I’m taking the photo. I find nature photos irresistible when I’m behind the camera, but far more boring than pictures of people when I’m looking at photos. My friend lent me his macro lens, though, which was all the excuse I needed to head outside and capture the various blooms we’ve joyfully watched springing up throughout our gardens over the last few weeks.
