April Showers Bring… April Flowers?

All of these April showers lately are making me think of May flowers. But I say, why wait until May? It should be no surprise to anyone who reads the blog that I. Love. Flowers. I am always taking numerous detail shots of the bouquets, centerpieces, cake toppers and the baskets of flowers along the pews. There is something so irresistible, beautiful and amazing about flowers! They are delicate, intricate, fragile, bursting with color, incredibly fragrant and, ultimately, temporary – until you take a photograph of them, that is. Here are a few of my favorite flower shots from over the years.

Green limes, foliage, ferns, ivy, leaves, orchids, hydrangea:

Roses, calla lilies, orchids and hydrangea all in shades of fall:

Hydrangeas and delphinium are the way to go if you want blue flowers:
