Personal Photo Project of the Week #120


Conundrum

This week’s Personal Photo Project kind of borders on the edge of being a failure. I wanted to photograph this flower because I found it to be interesting looking. Unforutnately, the time I took these pictures is the only time I saw this flower blooming.

I checked on it on a regular basis until it died and never saw it blooming again.

I’m pretty sure this flower is a weed, but my policy on things that I don’t know about is this:

“If it produces a pretty flower, it can stay.”

Some serious gardeners might scoff at such a policy, but I didn’t get to be Boone’s premiere moonflower and hollyhock gardener by accident.

This mystery flower/weed was in my Mom’s front yard. I have no clue what it is, so if you know, leave a comment in the comments section of this blog.

It would appear I’m almost within striking distance of being caught up with my Personal Photo Projects!

Personal Photo Project of the Week #119

This week’s project was to take a few photos at the Iowa Arboretum as I was scouting it for a wedding that I was going to be photographing in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately, I ended up having very little time out there to photograph as by the time I was able to get there I had to turn around and get to the Little League Park to photograph the Challenger Program.

Here are the few other pictures from the Tree Library Series:

Don’t be surprised if you see a Tree Library Redux in the near future. It seems I’ve been ignoring the numerous photographic possibilities at this awesome park/garden that is minutes away from my front door.
