Focus on: Flowers Around Us

Searching for flowers in Winter

This week's prompt in Sally Russick's photo challenge at The Studio Sublime is The Beauty of Flowers. Oh great. I love flowers. And I  like photographing flowers. But my personal take on the activity is to take a picture ( or pictures!) especially for the challenge. And well, it's WINTER. Soooo, green house? Florist shop? Silk flowers? 

I got to thinking about flowers as decor and  I saw them... lots of places.  I decided to focus on a lovely old dresser dish. 

I think the flower details here are very lovely. (Also the lace!) This is all china, a molded china hand, flowers, and lace. 

 It makes a wonderful prop for taking pictures of other floral objects... in this case jewelry.

The brooches are vintage pieces from  yard sale-ing forays in the summer. The Lucite lily earrings are my own design.
