Garden Orchids, Roses and Others Photos
I wanted to show you some cute flower photos. I do not often get the chance to photograph flowers. There are not a lot of flowers in my garden. I would add more if I could afford them. Then again, it isn’t as if I have a lot of time to look after flowers. I work better with papayas. My papaya trees are finally producing fruit. I had to put a bib on the fruits to keep the bugs from getting at them. Even in their small form, their sugary sweetness lures a lot of bugs. Even the...
Purple Orchids Flowers Photos
Today, I wanted to show you a few photos I took of my orchid flowers. I got them as a gift after I got out the hospital. They were a nice gift because they do not have pollen. Pollen tends to make me sneeze a lot. Pollen has a way of moving about. You do not need to be near it in order for it to affect you. The long and short of it is that I liked the present. The orchids were two different flavors of purple. One was a solid color, while the other...
Closeup and Faraway Random Artsy Photos
Today, I wanted to show you some photos I took a bit of a long time ago. They had been originally posted in my Blogger website. Since my blogger went the way of the dinosaur, I figured I would post it in my Artsy Sister website. Without any more introductions, I wanted to show you some closeup photos that I took. When I was in Florida International University, I took a photography class as part of my Journalism Major. Such a class wasn’t required for my major. Still, I figured that a journalist should learn...
Beautiful Flowers: Roses and Other Cuties
Today, I wanted to write a little short blog about flowers. It doesn’t matter where I go. If I see a flower, I am compelled to photograph it. I didn’t see too many flowers variety when I was down in Mexico. There were a few interesting ones here and there. The entrance to Xcaret also had an interesting looking flower bowl. All in all, I didn’t photograph that many flowers. I suppose that the summer heat did a number on the flowers. The place was practically boiling in some places, like the Mayan Pyramids of...
Blue Morpho and Black Butterflies Watercolor Paintings
I got around to posting my two new watercolor paintings. They are based on butterflies I photographed in the wild. The wild is a bit of an exaggeration. I saw them in a butterfly preserve in Key West. It still works just as well. It is interesting to experience butterflies with your own two eyes, in the real world. I have a serious bug phobia. Still, that doesn’t stop me from appreciating the beauty of butterflies. As long as they do not land on me, I can be super peachy about it. The other part of the painting is choosing...
