Floral Friday ...


 Floral Love






In stepping away to find a new refreshed creative outlet, I have realized that I will never venture too far away from photographing flowers.  It's like having chocolate in the house; when all is quiet there is that soft beckoning voice, "Nicki, come photograph me." (or in the case of chocolate - "girl, you know you want me!")  I can only resist one at a time, so as long as I'm posting pictures of flowers, you know I'm avoiding the diet buster, Monsieur Chocolate.  Don't feel too bad for the chocolate; did I mention I have a teenager walking vacuum in the house.  Best diet aid ever!

    Well, for one, I'm glad you didn't stay away from the flowers for too long. So pretty!

    I understand the draw to flowers - and yours are so so pretty! I love the variegated features of this one - it is beautiful.
    And I totally relate with the endless stomach that is the teenager!
    Have a great weekend!

    Hi Nicki, lovely, bright yellow color ... Such a beautiful composition! And the leaf & model with the thoughts in your former post made me stop and reflect - A lovely way to start the weekend!

    Can I just say that I don't mind that you photograph a ton of flowers and share a ton of flowers? As you know from my post yesterday with flowers I love flowers also. They are so wonderful nobody can stay away from them for long :)

    I know the feeling exactly - I try to find new things to photography besides flowers and birds and then the first bird, or first flower I see sends me into high gear - but I love doing them - so I will continue - even while looking around and trying something else now and then. Great photo!!!

    Chocolate and flowers...no arguing with that! We all need a little (at least) of both.

    When nothing else seems appealing to photograph, flowers are a great subject to find inspiration again.

    I find flowers often calling my name, as well, however; I do try my best to ignore the beckoning call of the chocolate! lol! Your image is stunning, Nicki! Amazing detail and I really love the texture you've added ... very nice!! Visiting from Floral Love. Have a happy weekend! :)

    I love the composition of this flower! Flowers are my most favourite thing to photograph too and I also have trouble staying away from the chocolate!
