Flower photography is not my great passion but I've alway been attracted to lupines, those wonderful wildflowers that appear around Vermont in early June. Each year I look forward to seeing the lupines since I know that summer is close at hand.

Vermont tulips in spring time
Vermont tulips in spring time
May 21, 2023  |  Woodstock, VT

One of the sure signs of spring in Vermont is tulips popping up. They are beautiful to see and fun to photograph.I decided to do something a little different this year and got some cut tulips at The Farmer's Market. I wanted to photograph them against a pure white background so the color and shape of the tulips would stand out. We have some space on the gallery's second floor so I got a large piece of while foam core that we use for matting photos and used it as the background. I shined a couple of bright lights on it to make sure it would be absolute white.

While we always guarantee every purchase is loved, it isn’t fun to watch as your gift is opened and exuberance doesn’t fill the person’s face because you weren’t sure of their taste or decor. Gift cards to the rescue!

How I shot Bogie Mountain
How I shot Bogie Mountain

If you’re a photographer, Vermont offers endless opportunities for dramatic picture taking. For the most dramatic photographs, I find dawn and dusk to be the best – The Golden Hours. Since I retired I have used the camera to motivate me to explore Vermont and find places that are often overlooked and as a result I have traveled the back roads through the middle of Vermont pretty thoroughly. Usually, I have a destination in mind, but I like the bit of adventure that comes with “I wonder where that road goes…” and finding out.
