The sunlight’s reflection on the large leaf of the elephant ear plant, the sun still strong, still a summer’s sun although its strength wanes each day as we add a few night minutes onto out 24 hour allotment, subtract a few light minutes.

Warm on my arms, warm enough to cause me to break into a sweat under my hat band, a glowing feeling, a feeling of well-being. All is right my my tiny garden world when the sun shines.

https://www.parolacce.org/vaffanculo/ Sunday morning was one of those delicious Wisconsin mornings. So fresh and sunny, a gentle breeze, a few puffy clouds drifting along. It was the kind of morning that begs for adventure. Well,  perhaps not a big adventure, but surely a trip across town to visit the local botanical gardens.

Buy Clonazepam Online Overnight I’ve spent many hours at the Olbrich Botanical Garden on Madison’s east side – one of the premier botanical gardens in the United States. I thought the above quote was appropriate for this garden visit, because I took my first 85 photographs within 20 feet of the entrance to the outdoor gardens.

Get Online Xanax Prescription It took over an hour for me to move beyond the front entrance and these entrancing hosta. The sun, still quite low on the horizon, was shining brightly on the hosta foliage. Too bright for any photography without a diffuser, and I had left the diffuser in the car. Once I started poking around the plants, however, I discovered a delightful world of light under the hosta leaves. Oh, what a world of delight and lovely lighting and textures.

Many more photographs of hosta to come . . .

I Never Did Like to Color the Sky Blue © 2011 Bo Mackison

Same bench, Olbrich Botanical Gardens, after a detour through the color filter in my brain (with help from Nik Color Efex™). Just as I never much enjoyed always coloring the sky blue, I sometimes prefer purple foliage to the greens more commonly seen…

I indulged in a little camera work, and then a lot of studio play this week, as I combat a very stubborn case of hives that appear to have a mind of their own! I think the studio play was exactly what I needed to counter-balance my current preoccupation with all things red and blotchy on my skin! (Hives apparently have the ability to induce wild scratching.)

Join me for my last summer art fair in the Madison area today, Saturday, August 20 at the Fitchburg Agora Art Fair, located just a few minutes south of Madison.Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday only.

Sherpa and I will be in Booth # 5. Look for the Seeded Earth Studio sign. Come say hello and see some of my newest photographs, up close and personal.
