Shed and roses 2010

Shedandroses2010


Dear Everyone:

When I saw this shot I had
a moment of deep recognition
that I had a shot.

The shot had character and
is even a little haunting.

The colours of red, green and
white add beauty to an image
of rather derelict sheds.
The roses are also a spot of beauty.


Hope that you enjoy this image.

Dear Everyone:

Was struck by colours of beige and blush tones

this week.

I put together a few images for you to

see- a folk art painting, a photograph

of blush-tinged tea roses with a beige

background, a fashion spread of nude/

blush hued clothing (Vogue Australia)

and an interior of blush tones

by noted interior designer Thomas

O'Brien from his newly released book

-"American Modern".

Hope that you find these images

inspiring and soothing.

Have a well-reasoned day.

Helen.

Floral Decay

I developed an interest in photographing

decaying and fading flowers from exposure to

2 photography books:

Christopher Beane (2008). Flower.

New York: Artisan

Clive Nichols (2007). The Art of

Flower and Garden Photography.

London: Argentum.

These 2 men are the best floral

photographers in the world.

There is something challenging

about the beauty of dying flowers.

These 2 images strike me as hauntingly

beautiful.

Hope that you enjoy them.

Have a never-stop-seeing-the-

beauty kind of day.

Helen.

Reviewed my images and came across 3 more that

I quite liked. They are sort of interesting.

Not the classic single bloom shot.

Hope that you enjoy these images.

Have a stroll-in-a-garden kind of day.

Completed a shoot of roses in the Halifax Public Gardens.

Enjoyed the experience.

These are my best shots. Really like hpg062009-

the pink rose bloom with the purple edges.

Hope that you enjoy these images.

Have a drop-in-to-see-an-art-gallery

kind of day.

Helen.
