Sunflower Fields, Forever

Sunflower Field and Rock Wall

source link Located five miles west of Madison, Pope Farms Park was farmland deeded to the city of Middleton in 1999 for a historical park and prairie restoration. A stone wall, dating from the early 1900s, separates a picnic area and the prairie from a huge sunflower field.

Diazepam Online Purchase The park, in western Dane County, is on the eastern fringes of the Driftless Area, a large geological area.

https://www.appliquecafeblog.com/recommendations/ Much of the Driftless Region is in southwestern Wisconsin, northeastern Iowa and southeastern Minnesota. The term “driftless” refers to the land which escaped the “drifting” of the last glacier — the Wisconsin Glacier — about 100,000 years ago. Deep valleys and high ridges are predominant, and there is no drift, or debris, which the retreating glacier deposited in other regions of Wisconsin.

Waving to Autumn

Waving to Autumn

https://www.wjsmithconstruction.com/our-process/ Though we are still firmly entrenched in summer, and have the record heat waves across the country to prove it, signs of change are easy to find. This prairie, only a few weeks ago awash with myriad colors of flowers, is now gradually turning flowers to seeds. The muted colors of autumn slowly replace the brights and bolds of summer. Hot, still days turn warm and breezy.

source I feel as though I am waving “hello” as autumn approaches.

Tall Grass Prairie

enter site This isn’t the time of the year to be walking through a tall grass prairie. It is as dense as a thicket in a forest. Many of the prairie flowers bloom in July and August, some are already setting to seed. The Compass Plant, Indian Plantain, False Indigo, Orange Milkweed, Black Eyed Susans and Purple Coneflowers are some of the plants that will grow tall enough to make a hike through this area difficult. There are also four main grasses which grow in thick clumps — Little Bluestem, Big Bluestem, Indiangrass, and Switchgrass. It is not unusual to have many plants swaying three to six feet above your head.

Wild Columbine

Wild Columbine

Wild Columbine

source link Skirting the rocks at the forest edge
With a running flame from ledge to ledge,
Or swaying deeper in shadowy glooms,
A smoldering fire in her dusky blooms;
Bronzed and molded by wind and sun,
Maddening, gladdening every one
With a gypsy beauty full and fine —
Health to the crimson columbine!

~ Elaine Goodale Eastman (1863 – 1953)

Still working on a set of photographs I took in our back yard gardens. The Columbine is one of the easiest plants to grow, and I think one of the most beautiful. Like a fairy’s cap or a tiny lit lantern or maybe even an aerialist mid-air.

Wild Roses at Art in the Glen

Three Wild Roses

I’m fond of the wild roses that grow in the garden. I prefer them to the tea roses, not that those roses aren’t beautiful, only that they require much maintenance this far north to keep them healthy. After planting the hybrids two years in a row and losing a total of six out of six plants, I returned to the old garden standard.

After a two weekend break for graduation parties, bridal and bridesmaids dress shopping, and visiting with my dear sister-in-law from California – successful and enjoyable on all counts – I take my “Garden in a Gallery” out on the road again. Seeded Earth Photography and I will be at Art at the Glen in Glenview, Illinois – Sherpa’s hometown – on Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM to 5 PM.

I’m at Booth #81, near the historic airport tower, and I hope to see lots of friends and relatives from Glenview and the Chicago area at the art fair.

I am presenting an art chat in my booth on Saturday at 1:00 PM. If you want to learn more about photography and my personal philosophy, and add your own ideas, come visit Seeded Earth Studio’s booth at 1:00 PM on Saturday. All are welcome.
