A Photographer with no garden to take flower photographs? No Problem!

Dahlia by Carol Eliassen

If someone loves to photograph flowers but doesn't have access to a garden or lives in an apartment, there are several great options to consider:

1. Public Parks: Many cities have parks with beautiful flower gardens. These are often well-maintained and provide a variety of flowers to photograph.

2. Botanical Gardens: Visiting a local botanical garden can be a fantastic option. These gardens typically feature a wide range of plant species, including many types of flowers, and are designed for public enjoyment.

3. Flower Markets: Local flower markets or farmers' markets often have vibrant displays of flowers. These can provide excellent opportunities for close-up photography.

4. Nature Reserves: Many nature reserves have wildflowers and native plants. These areas can offer a more natural setting for flower photography.

5. Community Gardens: Some neighborhoods have community gardens where residents grow flowers and vegetables. These can be great places to take photos and often welcome visitors.

6. Urban Areas: Look for flower beds in urban settings, such as along sidewalks, in plazas, or on rooftops. Many cities plant flowers in public spaces to enhance the environment.

7. Flower Festivals: Check for local flower festivals or events, which often showcase a variety of flowers and provide a festive atmosphere for photography.

8. Friends' or Family Gardens: If you know someone with a garden, ask if you can come over to take some photos. This can also be a nice way to spend time with loved ones.

By exploring these options, a flower photography enthusiast can find plenty of beautiful subjects to capture, even without a personal garden.

I have now bought enough paint to redo every piece of furniture I have. Why? It is because I love playing with colors. Maybe I never really grew up! Coloring books even made a comeback for adults in recent years. I should have thought of that idea first!  I usually digitize my art and then throw it onto my gallery. I am not concerned about sales as much as having a place to put my art. I enjoy viewing it and seeing if I am making any progress in my skill set. I don't always sit and do art, or take my camera everywhere I go, so my progression is really, really slow, but then again, that really isn't my goal in my hobbies and crafts. I just like doing them. I don't need to be the best, or the greatest, or h...

My Steer Skull Painting

Steer Skull I have always wanted to paint a Steer Skull. This one looks like it still has one eye and the other has shriveled away. I like it, and I love the colors. My style of art is to have vibrant colors for the background.  Hope you enjoy viewing and if you would like to see it on my website, Click Here !
