Wet morning







I knew the flowers and foliage would look nice yesterday morning following a rainy night. I made some closeup images of Rhododendron blossoms, Comfrey flowers and a leaf, a lily leaf, and a Lupine just starting to open.

Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens





































The Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay have an impressive array of beautiful flowers, but I was most impressed with the remarkable landscaping, incorporating plantings, rocks, water, and sculptures. There is even a village of fairy houses constructed of native materials by visitors. It is worth the trip to Boothbay to see this place.

Sunday morning dew







Sunday morning was very dewy, adding a nice sparkle to milkweed buds and blossoms, a daisy, pea flowers, and ferns.

Purple Season










I enjoy the time of year when a lot of purple flowers bloom in our yard. We have Rhododendrons, Lupines, Irises, and various other unidentified weeds. This morning I went out and got my feet wet photographing closeups of some of these dew and rain covered flowers.
