Last of The Last
The last of the last! Yes, the last surviving peony in my daughter's yard. Doesn't it look delicious? The last tease until next season! I know you must be thinking, enough already with the peonies, but I just can't seem to help myself. Have I mentioned just a few times that I love them so???
A few more of my old props in the background, I photographed this still life from several different angles, somehow, magically the peony became the focal point. Big surprise!
I used my 50mm lens to create the clarity in the front with a bokeh background. The possibilities to photograph here are endless. I will move outside as soon as it stops raining and the temperatures rise a little. It was in the low sixties yesterday, a little hard to take since I left the nineties, with no rain in sunny, Florida. Part of the charm here in New England, however. I will continue to search for old props and there are some roses outside my window that are just begging me to photograph them. We shall see what tomorrow brings???
Have a wonderful day! |

Thanks for stopping by my blog Rosemary, I see you love peonies and using textures also!
You're on the other side of the country from me, but I can relate to your comment about the rain and low temps!
That's about all we've had here in the PNW this spring:(
I'm looking outside today at the rain beating down what's left of my peonies!
Rain here in NY too Rosemary, and lots of it :-(
What a beautiful photograph this is, and I could never tire of peonies!
