Yellow Daylilies

Here are more daylilies. I'm not sure what these are called, but they sure are bright and cheery. I wish I had these in my garden to look at every morning. Heck, I wish I had a garden. Haha.

Interesting Pink Flowers

I'm not sure what these flowers are called, but they sure captured by attention when I saw them. The long, slim buds look like fingers pointing up to the sky, and the petals, after full blossom, look like crepe paper.

The Coneflower and the Horseman's Star Flower

The "horseman's star" flower, or Hippeastrum flower
This plant is also called "knight's star" and was named by Honorable Reverend William Herbert, Dean of Manchester for it's resemblance to, of all things, a weapon called "morning star". This weapon was used by horsemen during the medieval times. Behold:

Thank you, Wikipedia! Scary looking, no? (I can only kind of, sort of see the resemblance, though.)

The Coneflower
You almost can't see the bug that's camouflaged so well on the flower.

In Flowers : Photography news, I have been busy playing around with a logo. The process of designing the logo is great fun, but I tend to be a little bit picky, so although I have narrowed it down to two options, it will probably be a while before I place it on the blog. So far, I really like the two that I have.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. I had a late night at the studio, and I am so glad it's finally Friday again.

Daylilies - Power of Light

Daylilies have such interesting names and varieties. Some of them are bold and strong; others, like this one, are soft and delicate. This one is called Power of Light.
