Gretchen came over this morning and photographed my meadow rue with her macro lense. Or is it micro lense? Whatever it is...it takes nice close-ups. It's such a delicate airy plant...and so hard to photograph.
The lighting wasn't quite right....and only a few of the buds were were open so she might give it another try on at a better time of day.
I made this montage to send to Alyson...but decided to post it here too! I don't really have the best conditions for meadow rue...but I'll keep trying.
Maybe because it's a bit blurry...this is my favorite photo!
It feels kind of ethereal.
Here's one I took a week or so ago of the buds in portrait mode.
Again...the blurriness makes it seem otherworldly.
Ethereal ephemera, methinks! These photos are magical! I'm not familiar with meadow rue—at least I don't think I am. Certainly not by name.
ReplyDeleteEthereal ephemera....perfect! Meadow rue was new to me too....but I love it. It's light and airy and barely there....and adds such interest to the garden.
