Peppermint Carnations

Not long before Christmas last year I found some wonderful red and white peppermint carnations at my local floral wholesaler. They seemed like the perfect flowers to photograph over the holidays. As I did with the other sets of carnations I’ve photographed, I found myself focusing in on small areas of a group of petals to create some abstract images of the carntations.

First – a photo of a single peppermint carnation – so you can see what the flowers I was photographing look like

 

And now the closer in abstract photos of the peppermint carnations

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing some of my carnation photos. I’m looking forward to taking more photos of carnations and sharing them with you soon.
