I love to see the world through my camera. It gives me focus. Lately I find myself wanting to get closer and closer to what I see cherishing every detail. Flowers are an incredible metaphor for many things in life - they look so different on the surface, but their basic underlying purpose is the same - survival. In these photographs I strive to glorify the detail of these differences and the dance they do with the light that surrounds them. I hope you enjoy my personal vision!

Blue Columbine
Most "blue flowers" aren't really blue - more violet in hue. This is amazingly blue! I couldn't identify it...I took this in Southern California but I don't know it's name.
My friend Magrid was right on the money - she said this might be columbine and with that information it only took a minute to find it - Columbine-Aquilegia vulgaris!
