Tearing Out the Garden | Northern California Nature Photographer
It’s past time to tear out the gardens - both the floral cutting garden and the vegetable garden. (My tomatoes are going crazy!!!) After all, it’s November! But, each time I go out to the garden and assess what I need to get started removing the old plants, I see bees, ladybugs, and butterflies. I just cannot begin to remove their food source.
Macro Photography in the Redwoods
Where ever we go in nature, there are photography subjects everywhere. Some are grand landscapes, while others might be tiny macro subjects. The redwood forests of Northern California are bursting with opportunities for both of these and everything in between. Join experienced workshop mentors Nadeen Flynn Photography and Amy Ames Photography for this amazing adventure!
Bokeh After the Rain | northern California Fine Art Photographer
Achieving an out of focus background with those wonderful little circles of light is an often sought after effect for many photographers. Count me as one of them. While taking a morning drive looking for my subject, I stopped along the side of the road to capture the raindrops clinging to the mustard weed creating bokeh after the rain.
Project 365, 2022, Week 21
The garden and yard were great sources for subject matter for Project 365, 2022, Week 21. Macro and long lenses to photograph flowers, insects, and birds.
Project 365, Weeks 13, 14, & 15
Project 365, Weeks 13, 14, and 15 are combined in this post while I play ‘Catch-Up’ for posting this project. Week 13 was spent mostly at home with some time in the Northern California mountains for the Waterfalls Workshop that was presented in March. You can find out more about it in this blog post Waterfalls Workshop. Fortunately, the flowers are beginning to bloom in my garden so I have subjects readily available for some macro work.
