Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water. A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.
Photographed the way I like it, minimal dof, it gives it a lovely sense of mystery, well, I think so...
Flower lovers will know that there is a flower language.
Every sentiment is expressed in one form or another by delicate blooms. Of course, even the experts disagree on the "true meaning" of many flowers and most have different meanings to different people. So, while all flowers convey thoughtfulness and love, a gift of flowers for a special someone will always create its own personal meaning, too.
HYDRANGEA - Thank You for Understanding.
Sometimes I just 'feeeeeeeeel' like this, a flower image in b&w...
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 emphasized without the colour. Don't you agree?
Have a wonderful day and thanx for your comments with all my heart, M, (*_*)

I used two layers of Kim's texture "rue" both on softlight, 68% opacity. I also added a radial gradient using the curves layer to give it a soft, subtle vignette.
Hydrangeas are one of my favourite flowers. I love not only the range and shades of colors, but also the fact that they display them all at once on one bush.
This dress will be for sale, I just need to make a nicer petticoat for the set...
It is the last hydrangea this year. This is the shot that I wanted to take by all means. In the information of Eric, it seems to have begun to bloom in Vancouver. I want to enjoy the work of the north friend a little from Japan from now on.
