When I saw the first rays of dawn landing softly on the hydrangea in our front yard, I was reaching for my camera in an instant.
I can't get over how different this bush looks at different times of year and in different light.
Hydrangeas bloom in planters along Park Avenue on Manhattan's East Side. I love the green tones of the just-opening pom-poms.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments. Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday.

Whatever I did (or didn't do) worked ... my hydrangea's are loaded with blossoms this year. The photo is not as crisp as I would like it. I've been using my 50 mm lense, but switched to my kit lens to work on improving my photos with it. Am missing the faster lens, but the practice is good!

My hydrangea is very old and it came with the house. I have moved it from on side of the house to the other. It's a veraity that's probably quite close to the wild species, so the flowers are not that spectacular as more recent cultivars. But I think this one is more beautiful in its subtle apparition.
Source: Dave's Garden. com, "Late summer is usually a tired time in the garden. Everything seems to be getting ready for a long winter's sleep and there isn't much blooming to keep things interesting. But if you have a few Hydrangea paniculata, your late summer garden goes from ho-hum to spectacular."
Well said, Dave. This is a pretty corner of the Agricultural Building on the Iowa State Fairgrounds. It's been two weeks since the fair, and this bush is really beautiful!
I always found it difficult to shoot a nice hydrangea micro image though tried many times. Inspired by Celeste, an increadible four third system photographer creating breathtaking images including all kinds of flowers, I am trying again to shoot macro of hydrangea although it seems such a challenge.
