Yellowstone Gerbera Daisy © 2011 Patty Hankins
I’ve recently added a new photo – Yellowstone Gerbera Daisy – to my Beautifulflowerpictures.com website.
For years at shows and via email people would ask for photos of Gerbera Daisies. They are an incredibly popular flower. And my answer was always – I didn’t have any photos of Gerbera Daisies – and I didn’t know if I’d ever have them – since I prefer to photograph flowers where they are growing. That way I’m not interrupting the cycle of life by preventing insects and birds from pollinating the flowers, nor am I preventing anyone else from enjoying the same flowers that I’ve photographed by picking them. Most Gerbera Daisies I see in the Washington DC area are cut flowers at a florist or grocery store. Recently, at a local botanical Garden I found several varieties of Gerbera Daisies in full bloom. This Yellowstone Gerbera Daisy was in great shape, beautiful shades of bright yellow contrasting with the dark green leaves. I knew I’d found the first Gerbera Daisy that I’d be happy to offer as a photo on canvas for all the Gerbera Daisy lovers. So now – I’m in search of more varieties of Gerbera Daisy growing in the area for me to photograph.
This photograph is available as either a 10X10″ or 20X20″ gallery-wrapped canvas. You can order Yellowstone Gerbera Daisy from my website.
