ECF: Orchids

Filed under: Follow the Flock, Photography, Fibery Friends, Eye Candy Friday — Kristi at 9:07 am on Friday, May 4, 2007

These orchid photos are courtesy of Anne letting me photograph them while we visited. The sun was setting when I started photographing them. The first is just with the natural light and long exposure time (without a tripod, even!) and the second was with flash, but using the diffuser.

It has been a very busy week, not just work-wise, but also socially. It seems we have had something going on every night this week. A visit with Anne (whom we hadn’t seen in week) at her house to see the garden in the early stages, voice lessons and dinner another night, graduate student operas, and on and on. I’m exhausted. But the weekend is full too with some fun gatherings with friends we haven’t seen in a while and some of us SnB gals are getting together on Sunday. I’ll wait to share what we’re doing until next week.

Have a great weekend!

Wonderful photo! I just finished your Gentleman’s Socks, they turned out great! And- just got my Spin-Off today, your socks in there are fabulous! I’ll be a spinner one day, but these socks I can knit right away! Great job!

What a lovely color that orchid is! Makes me want to try and dye a yarn to match.
