Mother Nature as the consummate artist! Ain't she grand?!

Graceful, flowing design.

Lots of ruffles.

Clear green and elegant!

A little hors d'eouvre there.

Hope these were fun.

I don't think it was all Mother Nature's work there... Someone else had a hand in making such perfect works of art...

But who?

 

[PlantAKiss]

Thanks guys! But I owe it all to Mother nature. Such a beautiful subject to photograph.

Great pics Suzanne!!!!!

My favorite is the first one...the rubricorpora. Its just so curvy and graceful and the colors complement each other nicely. But I showed it to a friend of mine and she said "Ewwwww...it looks like its got veins!" She was not impressed. lol Don't think she'll be a CP convert.

Lovely pics Suzanne!
I know what you mean about non-CP friends. Mine wanted my bical, but when I told her about the requirements she shrugged her shoulders and said it would be pretty until she killed it with tap water

. But she still wanted it. I steered her quickly over to the d. capensis....

Are you saying Suzanne didn't have a hand in making such perfect photographs? Or even in raising the subjects to such prime condition?

 

[PlantAKiss]

Thanks all! Nothing more fun than showing off Mama Nature to her best advantage.

Parasuco...I can't take credit for growing them unfortunately. They are new plants that I just took advantage of their perfection. NEXT YEAR I can claim them to be MINE!

Mike...I would be in CP heaven photographing your plants! I'll bet I could get some spectacular pics from your spectacular plants. Hmmmm...all I need is to quit my job, hop the Concorde and get directions to your house. lol Oh wait...I think I'm dreaming! *sigh*

Hopefully when I get my new camera I will really be able to do the plants justice. Then you poor souls will be subjected to even MORE pics!

Oh...here is way of looking at art I thought was really cool. The Master Artist Michelangelo said of his magnificent marble sculptures...that he didnt create the figures. The figures were already inside the marble block. All he did was..."release them". And this is so true...there is beauty in each and every plant...you just release the beauty to shine thru in a good photo.

p.s. now you can imagine how many pics of my dog I have
