Your flowers are beautiful and the photographs are incredible. I just completed my first photography class and fell more in love with picture taking. The whole time I looked at your photos I wondered what shutter speed and what apature did she did use. How ridiculous, right?

Love your blog.

So pretty! I am cracking up because I just posted a rose garden (the huntington gardens in Pasadena) but our posts are so different. Yours is so soft and pretty and mine is crazy and wild. Hmm. What do you think that means? lol!

Hope you are well Erin!
