Day 316

Rainy Daisies, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

Lazy rainy day shot today. I was using the 300mm to try to get some shots of the birds in our backyard but they didn't want to come out once they saw me out with the camera. So I settled for flowers.

Day 305

Summer Bloom, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

It was raining most of the day today which the yards here greatly needed. So the daisies are all closed up for the moment. They looked very pretty in the sun.

Just 60 days or 2 months left on my Project365. So expect a few lazy flower shots. Going every day for this long sometimes just gets challenging.

Day 290

In Bloom, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

My daughter got to pick out and plant her own flowers in her own pot earlier this Spring and they have just started to bloom. What we thought were pink daisies were actually purple but pretty all the same. By the way, she was the official water spritzer for this shot.

Day 21

White Daisy Back, originally uploaded by Shutterbug Cel.

While shopping at Costco today I stopped to admire the flower bouquets they had for sale. This bunch of bright Gerber Daisies caught my eye. It was good practice for me to take home and shoot while trying to apply some of what I have been learning in my classes. I taped a piece of black paper to the wall and set them next to the window to get some natural light.
