Welcome to my Nature Photography Showcase

There is so much beauty in nature when you just take a moment to stop and enjoy!

I am always amazed at the way every sunrise and sunset is just a little different and how a flower can look different from various angles and lighting conditions.

I hope you enjoy seeing nature through my eyes and camera.

Here's the link to my Zazzle Gallery. Head on over and look around. http://www.zazzle.com/mbgphoto

Tropical Flowers

painted effect

This mousepad design was taken from a photograph that I took at "The Butterfly House". I then enhanced the photo in photoshop to give it a sponge painting effect.

The photo of the petunias was taken on a visit to the Wine Country Gardens in Defiance, Missouri. It was a glorious day to be out in the country and I snapped this shot of the petunias while we were enjoying lunch on the terrace.

Sunrise in Paradise

enjoy this photograph on Zazzle products

This photograph was taken from our balcony on a visit to Jupiter, Florida. I was delighted to arise early the first morning to discover this amazing sunrises.

During the next weeks I was greeted each morning with a beautiful sunrise. It was amazing to me how each one was different than the day before. I was able to capture hundreds of photographs all from the same vantage point, but each one different and more amazing the the one before.

Coasters on Zazzle

Zazzle now carries a great line of sandstone drink coasters. The designs on these coasters appear pale because of the sandstone which helps the absorbency of the coaster. These coasters would make great gifts.

Stately Purple Tulips

Sometimes great photo opportunities are right in your own neighborhood. One day on my daily walk, I noticed these delightful tulips in my neighbors front yard. I hurried home for my camera and was able to capture many photograhs of tulips.

    Having been rather unwell, i was given a camera by my husband to try to get me outside a bit more, as I can't go far, you are so right that sometimes beautiful things are right on our doorstep, I am fortunate my neighbours also allow me into their gardens, and I Usually give them a Zazzle product for xmas, with a picture of oneof the flowers in their Garden! As a thanyou for allowing me to crawl and trawl about their blooms!
    I started getting asked where they could buy them themselves for friends and family! and I had to open a UK Zazzle shop! I do love stopping by and seeing what beautiful creation others make too. I just love the tupilps Beautiful
