Faded Blooms! Photo Gallery by Patricia Kay at pbase.com

Faded Blooms!

As you know i love to take photos of fresh flowers but i also like to shoot fading and dried blooms...
Some of my images i have added texture or filter...sometimes both...but many i have left as they are because of the beautiful textures they have already...

Hope you enjoy my images and thank you for your visit!!!

An ingenious idea! And you have done a super job here. Big Vote!

As other people have written here, this is a good idea to photograph flowers on the decline, just like we photograph old dilapidated houses or rusty locomotives. . . And with the drought we have here now, I suppose my garden offers a rich potential :-)

Ali Majdfar		16-Aug-2009 08:16
Fabulous collection, lovely shots. ~V

Patrick Goossens		15-Aug-2009 13:54

Flowers are usually photographed when they put their best. This collection shows that the pensioner years could be as beautiful. Excellent work you've done!
