Gerber Daisies

NEW LOGO I
My daughter was here visiting for a week and on her last evening here brought me a bucket of Gerber daisies home from her best friend Mandy's place. Mandy's family grows Gerbers in a huge greenhouse and supply the flowers to stores all over the mainland.
I didn't even have enough vases for all of them, so mason jars etc work fine to hold this bounty!
I couldn't even begin to pick my favorite colour of Gerbers. I love them all. How can you not be happy with a house full of Gerbers!
I even like the back end of them, although my hubby doesn't quite get that!

Sunshine in a flower!
I simply love them, always have.

I love the back of flowers as well. I think we don't always look at the whole picture. Turn something over and you have a whole new perspective!

A little artwork!
Hope you enjoyed my flowers. I simply had to share them with you all!

These are gorgeous! Did you photograph these in your own studio or is this just a really nice use of natural light?

I would be very happy with all these filling my house with such glorious colors. Your photos are great and thank you so much for sharing them with Today's Flowers.

I photographed these in my home just using natural light. I had some under my skylight in the kitchen, some next to my patio doors in the dining room and a couple upstairs next to a spare room window when light was on that side of the house. No flash. I much prefer using natural light whenever possible!

Your flowers are beautiful and so are the photos of them. I especially liked seeing the backs.

What a lovely artwork - love the way you have placed the flower in the corner and those brilliant oranges look great against the soft green background. I also like the textures in the background.Thanks for sharing your artwork on Mandarin Orange Monday:)
