Here, Autumn is in full swing!

The weather matches the season of moodiness, you see it in people, scurrying, hurrying, collar high, head retracted, hands in pockets, no, no sun today.

In the studio, the lights are my suns, lol.

Making these maple leaves bright and beautiful.

Next, a grand celebration of Autumn.

My neighbour grows this lovely vine... it is now absolutely delightful.

They offered me some and I brought the leaves into the studio and made a few compositions.

First thing you see of course are the colours in this grapevine leaf... but then the eye gets drawn in to complexity of the texture, all the veins, the small bumps, little scars due to weather or ‘visitors’?

Wishing you a wonderful day and as always, thank you for visiting, Magda, (*_*)

BLUE, SO BLUE… Cornflower by magda indigo

18 1

Portrait of a Cornflower.

The cornflower is considered a beneficial weed and its edible flower can be used for culinary decoration, for example to add colour to salads.

Cornflowers have been used and prized historically for their blue pigment.

Cornflowers are often used as an ingredient in some tea blends and herbal teas and is famous in the Lady Grey blend of Twinings.

With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

FALLEN GLORY... by magda indigo

#AbFav_Autumn

FALLEN GLORY...

I love Autumn; I perceive it as a time of 'reflection', look back on the past of this year, remembering the joys of spring, the warmth of summer... and always the light!

It can be a bit nostalgic, the days get shorter, the shadows grow taller, however... the evenings get longer... it is cosy, bring out some candles, we seem to get ready for the 'hibernation', being more inside, wondering what this season has in store, will it be wet?

Will it be cold? Will it be white?

A long autumn and short winter, or a short autumn, making winter seem endless?

Here the days now start quite misty, but the sun is still strong enough to burn it off, the evenings are cold, the skies are most beautiful, with sunsets to die for...

In a sudden burst, the leaves change from tired-looking into this magic coat of colours.

If lucky the fun can last, but it often takes only a few stormy hours to make it a multi-coloured carpet, baring the now skeletal trees.

Food for the roots, the new leaves next year... and so it goes on... year after year...

A COLOURFUL GOOD-BYE!

Taken in the studio, it was an 'easy' one to light!

Have a wonderful day, filled with love and beauty, M, (*_*)

OF BLOOMS and BUDS… Roses by magda indigo

32 2

There are plenty of myths and legends behind the white rose.

As one myth has it, the first rose on Earth was a white rose, and it miraculously transformed to other hues.

The pure white rose was said to have been tainted by blood, making it red; and it was also made to blush from a kiss, making it pink.

Another myth came from the Ancient Greeks.

It was said that roses were originally white until one day Aphrodite the Goddess of Love and Beauty pricked herself with the thorns of a rose.

The blood that dripped from her finger turned the white roses red.

These myths indicate the loss of innocence, which is the absolute opposite of what the white rose symbolises ñ innocence and purity

Have a sweet day and thanx for viewing, Magda (*_*)

SOUVENIRS d'ENFANCE… by magda indigo

#AB_FAV_SUMMER_to_AUTUM_ 🍄🍁🍂

MAPLECOPTER-MEMORIES

Speak of childhood memories!!!

Also found under a tree in bonnie Scotland.

Maple trees (Acer) produce winged seeds called double samaras, which twirl to the ground in late summer or early fall.

They resemble helicopters in motion, earning them the common name of helicopters or whirligigs.

The seeds vary slightly in size and colouring among species, but all produce winged seeds affectionately called helicopters.

The innocent fun you could have with those twirly thingies, throwing them up, running after them (kept us fit!), guarding and treasuring your 'best' ones!

Used the ring flash on this.

Now, DO NOT rush out to get one of those!

It is not a priority, has quite 'limited' usage, is particular and specific and not the easiest to use!

I use it together with other sources of lighting, but that's my game, my challenge (obsession?) literally PLAYING and PAINTING with light.

Have a fun day and thank you, M, (*_*)

PURE SUMMER... ALTHEA ROSE by magda indigo

38 4

#AbFav_SUMMERGARDEN

#AbFav_PHOTOSTORY

Tall and colourful hollyhocks give height and beauty to English gardens.

They are often found around doorways, where they add to the vertical dimension of the planting, forming a vital part of that thatched cottage look.

Also referred to as Althea Rosea.

Hollyhocks are very drought resistant, and do well in full sun locations that might be too hot or dry for other plants.

The stems of hollyhocks can be used as firewood, and the roots have been used medicinally.

You can take seeds and grow from singles, never from doubles!

Is the case for many plants!

Thanks for your time and comments, M, (*_*)

I see beauty in everything.

This red rose instead of losing its petals, had just dried up, it retained the glory... in my eyes... to yours?

The dried DARK Roses.

We live in uncertain times, MUST care for each other, do what is right: Please give PEACE a chance?

For ALL our sakes?

Please, invite more of your friends to join in and plant flowers in our beautiful garden for PEACE?

I created a group on FB, NO, not a 'FLOWER'-group... so sad about all the terrible news constantly...

PLEASE, join, invite your friends to 'PLANT' their most beautiful flowers in this garden... for PEACE.

Thank you and have a peaceful day, M, (*_*)

MY NAME IS LILY… by magda indigo

#AbFav_blackwhite

#AbFav_PHOTOSTORY

Lilium longiflorum.

And I have a demanding presence!

Also a most pleasant fragrance.

This plant is native to Japan and the Ryukyu Islands.

It is a stem rooting lily, growing up to 1 m high and bears a number of trumpet shaped, white, very fragrant, and outward facing flowers.

I love the subtle tones, all the varied tones, that give the flower/petals/stems their texture, depth and form, their delectable shapes accentuated, extracted and emphasised without the colour.

Don't you agree?

WHITE LILY... EXOTICA by magda indigo

yes I am a big fan of white lilies...

Lilium longiflorum.

This plant is native to Japan and the Ryūkyū Islands.

It is a stem rooting lily, growing up to 1 m high and bears a number of trumpet shaped, white, very fragrant, and outward facing flowers.

We have a family of friends that we visit every year, they breed horses, wonderful people.

They have now made it a tradition that each year, on the day of our return back home, the end of our visit/holidays, they present me with a bunch of freshly-cut Lilies (one of the sons helps on a farm where they grow them for the bulbs!).

It is a bouquet that I can barely hold my arms around, I had to buy a BIG vase and even now, they are split into two displays. Our house is filled whit the fragrance.

What wonderful friends we have all over!

THE LITTLE WIND-DANCERS… FUCHSIA by magda indigo

48 6

Fuchsia, free, fun, they dance to the tune and rhythm of the wind.

Fuchsia flowers from the garden. So delicate and pretty and in one of my favourite colour-combinations!

Fuchsia is a genus of flowering plants that consists mostly of shrubs or small trees.

The first, Fuchsia triphylla, was discovered on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola (present day Dominican Republic and Haiti) in 1703 by the French Minim monk and botanist, Charles Plumier.

He named the new genus after the renowned German botanist Leonhart Fuchs

The vast majority of garden hybrids have all descended from a few parent species.

A whole week of magic again… Am I the only one to enjoy the beginning of the week? LOL

BACK TO BACK DAFFODILS… by magda indigo

Narcissus is the Latin name or botanical name for daffodils, and daffodil is the common name for all members that fall under the genus Narcissus.

A sneak preview of Spring, a whiff of fresh fragrance, a dash of crisp colour, it gives hope... double Daffodils.

Again, Paul knows how much I love flowers and as there's nothing going on in the garden, he often buys me flowers.

I think he chooses them in the secret hope that I'm going to photograph them, hihi.

And he's right, I DO.

I enjoy taking them to the studio and trying out all kinds of lighting!

Back in the shops.

with a yellow accent.

Trendy, NEW for me.

A red I have NEVER seen in Peonies!

As I am in lockdown Paul is now the flower-hunter and brings home work, LOL

The more unusual, different and downright odd, yes please.

They are stunningly beautiful, vibrant and the petals such a great contrast to the stamen.

Hope you like them as much as I do.

The common thread is that the flower always denotes luxury and indulgence.

I again tried to photograph them with lots of drama!

Take care, be safe!

The BEAUTY of LEAVES AND STEMSof FLOWERS... by magda indigo

33

#AbFav_GREEN_ 🍀

BOUND TO LIKE IT

Stems of Daffodils, I bundled them with a raffia bow...

Stems have four main functions which are:

* Support for and the elevation of leaves, flowers and fruits. The stems keep the leaves in the light and provide a place for the plant to keep its flowers and fruits.

* Transport of fluids between the roots and the shoots and blooms .

* Storage of nutrients.

* The production of new living tissue. The normal life span of plant cells is one to three years. Stems have cells called meristems that annually generate new living tissue.

The leaves are the primary food-making part of the plant. Leaves absorb carbon dioxide from the air, combine it with water that comes through the roots of the plants to make food (a sugar molecule known as glucose), and release oxygen into the air.

Hope you like these energetic image, thanx for your time and visit, M, (*_*)

Frederic Chopin: "Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art."

This statuesque proud flower did not need anything else...

The pure black and white brings out the structure and shape, no?

Zantedeschia, usually erroneously called Calla or Arum lilies (only when white), they are not a true lily.

Monochromatic? Not really he? All the shades of grey... from a true black to white... as it should be!

LOL, I am happy for each new week that I can create beauty!

Double Tulips, speaking a silent language that I seem to understand.

Wouldn't it be a lovely thought, if I had been a beautiful flower in a 'previous' life?

These plump double Tulips are a bit capricious, Baroque, so varied in shapes, with small oddities, I have become fascinated by them, aahh, and the colours, from deep red, through textured orange to veined yellow.

Oh, and that sweet honey fragrance... HMMMM, Love them.
