Hellebore Serenity | Northern California photographer

Apr 18

Written By

Welcome once again to our Serenity Blog circle where each member posts images that convey serenity to them. This month I am posting Hellebore Serenity. Various activities nourish us in so many ways. One of those ways for me is macro photography. And, one of my most favorite subjects is flowers. So, joining them together was just natural after I found these flowers at the UC Davis Arboretum while exploring with a good photography friend.

Backlighting helped isolate their beauty while blurring the background. I love the delicate form of hellebore blooms. And, the way they hang down as if to protect their beauty. Hellebore blooms display during the winter months while most of the rest of the garden is resting.The world seems to stop when I focus on macro photography. That's how I found serenity this month. How do you find serenity in your day? I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas. We can never have too much peace and calm!

I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.
