Remembering Holidays Past

December is one of my favorite times of year. When it comes to Christmas decorations and music, I’m still a little kid at heart. I love the lights, the decorations, the poinsettias, and scent of the pine trees and wreaths. They bring back memories of Christmas and winter in my hometown of Winchester, Massachusetts.

When it comes to photographing in December, sometimes its a bit of a challenge to photograph the season in a new way. By now, I’ve taken hundreds of photographs of various poinsettias – in just about every shade of red, pink, cream and white. And since I’ve seen and photographed so many single colored poinsettias – you can imagine why I was so happy to see the Ice Point Poinsettia the first time I saw it. The combination of red and white in the petals reflect the colors of the season. The patterns in the petals reminded me of the patterns in the ice on Big and Little Winter Ponds where I skated as a kid.

So for me, the Ice Punch Poinsettia presented not only a wonderful new flower to photograph, but also a reminder of sights and warm memories from my childhood. 

Are there flowers that bring back wonderful memories for you? If there are, I’d love to hear about them. 

Ice Punch Poinsettia is my December 2012 Photo of the month. Until December , SAVE 20% off the regular prices for Ice Punch Poinsettia.
