Earth Day Weekend Wildflowers

4/23/2017

It was a wonderful Earth-Day weekend - sunny and warm and nice for taking photos. I got out to Lime Creek Conservation Area and the Claybanks Forest Conservation Area to take pictures of wildflowers. Bluebells (even some pink Bluebells), Trout Lilies, Bellwort, Dutchman's Breeches, Jack-in-the-Pulpits, and many more. Here are several of the images that I took over the weekend.

I took a walk around the yard and gardens between rain showers yesterday and took a few photos of the raindrops on the leaves and flowers. (Click on the images to see larger.)

Bloodroot flowers

The Bloodroot blooms popped open on Saturday during a small window of sunshine between the storms. When the wildflowers start blooming is usually about the time that the migratory spring birds start arrive. Today I saw at least a dozen Rudy-crowned Kinglets a White-throated Sparrow, Brown Thrasher and Yellow-Rumped Warbler. I crept around the edge of the fence row and got a few pictures. I'm waiting patiently for more birds to stop in our backyard on their journey north.

Backyard Flowers

I walked out in the backyard one evening last week, after the sun had gone behind the trees and noticed that there was a nice soft light on the flowers. Most people tend to think of bright sunlight as being the best light for photos. It seems surprising to learn that the quality of light in the shade or on a overcast day can produce very nice images of flowers. The same with people pictures. With the camera on the tripod, I took a few shots before the light faded. (Click for larger images)
