Zinnias

Zinnias

Zinnias are one of summer’s most prolific flowers. It seems like every garden I seen in my area (including mine) has at least a few zinnias growing in it. They come in some many wonderful colors and combinations of colors. I thought I’d share a few zinnia photos with you today.

Kodak Girl Gazelle Powers – New Photo

Kodak Girl Gazelle Powers – New Photo

I’ve recently added a new photograph – Kodak Girl Gazelle Powers  – to my website at https://beautifulflowerpictures.com/store/kodak-girl-gazelle-powers/

In the first decades of the twentieth-century, the Kodak Company ran an ongoing advertising campaign designed to encourage women to become photographers and recorders of their family’s travels, activities, milestone events and every day occurrences. Inspired by these ads, I’m creating photographs showing women as active photographers rather than the passive subject of a male photographer’s work that we so often see.

In the photograph, Gazelle Powers is portrayed as a late 1910s Kodak Girl out photographing with her camera.

This photograph is available matted to 11X14 and 16X20

Asters are some of my favorite flowers – they come in so many wonderful colors and shapes. Here are a few photos of various asters that I’ve edited up but haven’t shared with you yet.
