Artful pics of flora...

[bensonga]

Not just flowers, all things flora. Large format, small format, digital or film.

I have taken photos of flora for many years, but a recent trip to Holland (the Keukenhof Gardens) renewed my interest.

I would love to see your photos here too.

Glad to read you enjoyed your visit to the Keukenhof, Gary.
Frankly, I fear my flora pics are just ordinary snaps far from artful ...
So for now I'll be watching this thread with great interest.

Kind regards.

Okay, I'll play. This one was captured using a Sony A7r converted to full spectrum. Added a little bit of flash from a Qflash T2

Well, here is one from Zion National Park with Nikon D3 and 24-70/2.8 lens, June 16, 2009.

If I remember correctly my daughter took this one.

I find it hard to think of my pictures as 'artful' ... but rather just like them ...
This is one I myself think of as "better than my average"

I'll go through my Flickr account in the next days, and may have a few others to share ...

Rafael,

Artfully excellent! Thanks.

Artful is dubious, but here is a Jasmine flower, from near Chitwan, Nepal, Sigma DP3:

Wonderful image Rafael! Here's a similar, though less impressive, photo I took quite a few years ago.

tulips have always been a favorite of mine, Gary, but here's a B/W conversion of a rose ...
