Flower Photography

Flowers are the reproductive structures in flowering plants. Flowers produce nectars. The nectars attract pollinators. When pollinators gather nectar from the flowering plants, they help to pollinate the plants.

As such, most flowers are brightly coloured to attract the pollinators. Where the flowers are small and insignificant, they have brightly coloured bracts to help attract pollinators to them.

Colourful flowers brighten up a room, and their fragrance fills the atmosphere with a nice scent. Fragrance from flowers is said to calm one’s nerves, raise one’s spirits, and helps in reducing stress. Seeing beautiful blooms and taking in the nice fragrance is sure to lift one’s spirits. That is why a walk in the garden always improves one’s mood.

Here are some close-ups of beautiful flowers. I am not really a photography enthusiast. But occasionally, inspiration hits me on the head and I will do my best to capture the beauty that caught my eye. Most of them turned out ordinary. Once in a while, some turn out to be quite brilliant.

This is a Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) flower, known for its fully fringed, double pink petals.

Lilium longiflorum, commonly known as the Easter lily.

Grandaisy Pink, a variety of Argyranthemum frutescens.

White rose

A Beaumontia grandiflora, commonly known as the Easter Lily Vine.

Desert Rose also known as Adenium obesum
