Word to your Mum

These colorful magenta mums were taken in Southeastern Indiana. The climate in the area lends itself to beautiful colors & many varieties of plants and flowers. The winter is normally just cold enough to provide mums and other perennials time to build back up their nutrient reserves.

Flower of Fire

We just had to post a fireworks picture being that it is the 5th of July. I like that this one took the shape of a big, dinnerplate dahlia.

The Smokers

I see many faces in this picture. This is a photo of smoke from an incense cone. The smoke is then lit from different angles using different color gels. The photo is then taken & flipped four times clockwise to produce the entire image. Check out more at hovlandphotography.com under odds and ends.
