Straight from the Garden

Hydrangea have fascinated me for years, but in the past they have looked pretty boring through the camera lens. But this year the petals are gorgeous, and I finally figured out a view. Here are shots from my new series. They are all available in my shop as 5"x7" prints for $19 at MagMoment. I have planted a row in my own yard. At first, I planted them underneath a couple trees. Then, I realized my mistake and moved them to bright sun. I bought a few more and they are growing to form a pretty wall. Perhaps they will block a loose basketball before too long.

I don't know what it is about your flowers, Hazel. But if you ever make that second shot into an aceo let me know. I adore it.

Great color! Love the moisture on the macro. A hedge of hydrangea would be wonderful!
