As much as I enjoy taking shots of flowers, I learned very early on that some of the most delicate just fade into the background of field and foliage. That was particularly true of the poppies, until I found what I've come to call my "blue sky background" technique. Walking home from Christiane's one day, I looked up over to their pool and saw how happy this multi-colored daisy variety was. And...the perfect blue sky to set them off! Today is gray and threatening snow-But, I can look at my daisies and poppies and see the blue.
Thinking of you and your new adventure!
It's gonna be GOOD!
Love,
Constance
