Milkweed Magic – {Maine nature photographer}
Posted on October 30, 2009
I absolutely LOVE the Fall season! For me, the colors signify accomplishment and a brilliant end to the busy, full days of Summer. I love the turning maple leaves, but even more, I love the opened pods of milkweed. For the past month as I drive to and from town, I’d scout the roadsides for the first signs of this amazing plant. And today, on my way home from a massage session, I actually had time to stop and photograph some. I was hoping for the sun to be shining because I love how the light illuminates the cottony white. The sky was overcast but I love the results anyway. The problem I’m having is choosing a favorite. One may wonder, how many images of a milkweed one can take? After all, a milkweed is a milkweed, looking just like the last milkweed. Wrong! I’d love to hear from you which image you like best. Just leave a comment at the end of this post to tell me. There are 16 images and I’m going to post them in the order that I photographed them, so you won’t think they are in order of preference. Enjoy!!
Hey Darlene, those are absolutely stunning pictures! Wow! You get better with each shot!
Great minds…I was just shooting the same thing in my b’fly garden the other day. They’re all fabulous, but I like the last one the best. Hope all is well up there!
Hi Darlene,
I’m a friend of Debbie, who directed me to your site. I am absolutely in love with your photography. I have bookmarked your site and will come back often to peruse all you have on offer. Such magical and beautiful images here – you are so very talented.
Regarding which milkweed shot I love best – I like the first one and the close up with the fly in it the best. Amazing!
Kind regards,
Maria
