Tulips in the Studio

Tulips in the Studio

I recently photographed a couple of sets of tulips in my studio – I thought I’d share the photos with you today. Believe it or not – I bought both sets of tulips at my local grocery store!

This first set were parrot tulips – with red, great, yellow, and orange in the petals. They reminded me of all the colors in the rainbow

Hollyhill Pinkie Dahlia – New Photo

I’ve recently added a new photograph – Hollyhill Pinkie Dahlia – to my website at https://beautifulflowerpictures.com/store/dahlia-hollyhill-pinkie/

Late summer/early fall at the local gardens means it’s dahlia time. Every year, I’m amazed at the spectacular dahlias I see on display. This Hollyhill Pinkie Dahlia caught my eye and I couldn’t stop photographing it. I loved the shape of the petals. The fact that they are white with a border of bold pink just made them that much more special.

When I saw this plum sunflower at the local market, I knew exactly how I wanted to photograph it. I wanted to share the details in the center and the wonderful combination of reds and yellows in the petals. This is one of the wonderful local flowers I photographed from Petal Patch Flower Farm.
This photograph is available matted to 11X14 for $ 54 or to 16 X 20 for $ 109

This is end of my photos of the 2018 Longwood Christmas display – unless I manage a quick trip up in the next few days to photograph the night time displays . . .

Only 11 months to go until the 2019 Longwood Christmas goes on display . . . I can’t wait . . .
