I love observing nature’s designs and am fascinated by the centers of sunflowers.
I love sunflowers, such happy sun filled joys! 🌻🌻🌻🌻

Started this bumblebee drawing for World Bee Day. I focused on texture with my .3mm Pentel Graphgear and 2B lead, resisting the urge to create too much detail. Flowers got less love, but still pop. Tagging this with #RareLittleThings as a teaser–announcement coming soon! 😉😊 #sciart

Graphite drawing of a bumblebee mid-flight next to a cluster of flowers, rendered in fine detail on white paper.

A bright orange daylily flower is open. The 6 stamens are rising out of the center. Yellow pollen is on the dark tips (anthers) of the stamens. There are a few drops of rain from a recent shower. The flower is surrounded by several buds and the background is green foliage.

A closeup image of nuts, bolts, screws, and various types of hardware fasteners made of metal and plastic. They are multi-colored in silver, gold, copper, brown, and black. Usually kept in a large jar until needed to make a repair. Anyone else have a jar of these "just in case?" 😊

The #smArtist theme for today is my favorite flower, the #peony. This bush was bursting with fragrant #flowers on a bright, sunny day. 💙🌞

A lost slipper on rough concrete #texture found at an #abandoned "ghost town." Silly #Limerick in alt.

#BlueSkyArtShow #blue
#photography #shadow
#EastCoastKin #ArtYear
#forgotten #lost #decay

A modern-day Cinderella
Got online and met a fella.
Had a date at this place.
Ran from his ghostly face.
Lost her slipper like Cinderella.

This image emphasizes texture and was taken while exploring a ghost town in Texas. On rough, cracked concrete, there was a woman's Mary Jane style, flat slipper with a bow. It was weathered and worn out with silvery colored fabric. The shoe appears to sit on my shadow while I snap the shot. I adjusted the color to lighten the concrete and make my shadow blue.
📷 Taken in bright sunlight with a Nikon z6ii.

What a cutie! Looks like you were having fun. 📸
My dad let me take photos with his cameras when I was in elementary school. I also "helped" 😉 him in his dark room processing B&W film/prints. I had my own Kodak Instamatic in the '60's. It's wonderful to see children with an interest in photography.
