Fall Curves is from my Naturally Abstract collection and was composed at Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, SC. I considered every leaf with good color and no visible damage (including some with darker yellows), but they were all missing one key aesthetic ingredient. I wanted the entire image to be...

Organized Chaos is from my Naturally Abstract collection and was composed at Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, SC. This is algae on the surface of a reflecting pool. In my mind’s eye, I thought that the randomly dispersed strands looked as if they may have come from a bubble that popped and sent them...

Greenie is from my Naturally Abstract collection and was composed at Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, SC. This is algae on the surface of a reflecting pool. I love finding little things in images that you didn't notice in the field. Here, that's the reflection that looks like a smile.

Duckweed is from my Naturally Abstract collection and was composed at Hopeland Gardens in Aiken, SC. By putting part of my tripod in the water I was able to compose this from directly above the aquatic plants.

Dropped In is from my Naturally Abstract collection and was composed at the Aiken County Historical Museum in Aiken, SC. I loved the colors of this lily, but the drops were even more attractive.

I've really been enjoying watching the chickadees bathing in my new little fountain on these hot days. Glad I can help them out, and they provide me a smile. Today I set my camera on a tripod close to the fountain and using the remote control app on my A7rII/iPhone I could shoot when they were...
