Flowery Entry

I took these pictures at my garden and my mom's. I just loved how these flowers looked.






Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. Luke 12:27-29

Why Flowers? Well, simple, they are one of the most beautiful things you may find. Just as the bible verse says, no matter who you a´re, what you do or what you have, you'll never come even as close as being or having something as beautiful as nature. It's art, as simple as that. Plus, to take pictures of people you have to wait for the right moment, you have to prepare, hunt for the second in which the shoot would express the best or the most. With flowers, they're just there, perfect, beautiful, sublime.
But don't worry, people pics are bound to show up ^^

Me encanta la Plumeria! La primera es mi Apocynaceae favorita de veras, es uno de mis arboles favoritos de entre los introducidos.
De entre las Plumerias que conozco esa es la que mas me gusta por el aroma que despide, es muy bonito de veras.
Acerca del resto, lindas fotos pero no se tanto de jardineria xD

Jajaja, the first grows in my garden (if you can call it a garde) so you can come and take flowers from it whenever you want. Or seed also if you prefer ^^

These are great. As you get more into it, you may want to start thinking about varying your compositions and playing with different angles. Most of these are pretty centered and the flowers are facing straight to camera.
I did a quick search for some basic rules of composition. There's a ton of websites but here's one for you to check out: http://www.picturecorrect.com/photographytips/composition.htm
Can't wait to see more!
