I thought I would start the year off with some infrared flowers from my garden. Last year I did a lot of photos of the flowers in my garden, and I really hope to continue doing that this year. I didn’t necessarily do a lot of infrared, but I do love what infrared does to the flowers, so the plan is to do a lot more this year.
The day these were taken it had been raining quite a bit, so they were wet. Almost the perfect conditions for photographing flowers. Do you like infrared flowers?
Our first theme is next week and our host will be Sarah from Travel with Me. She has chosen the theme of MARKETS, and maybe shops, if you don’t have any images of markets. Should be good.

The infrared makes them look very delicate and almost ghostly – I like it!
I like that description Sarah, thank you.
Nice pic 👍
Thank you.
You’re right, infrared does wonderous things to flowers. I love the photos.
I’m glad you agree Elke. Thank you.
I am always saying the same thing, beautiful, well photographed and composed. You know I love you photography Leanne.
Thank you Ritva, I still appreciate it.
The infrared is really cool with the flowers. It seems like the infrared brings out a lot of the flower texture. Thanks Leanne!
It was a surprise when I did the first time, I’m a bit addicted to it now. I agree with the textures, and you notice the shapes more too. Thank you so much Tim.
I like the infrared effect with flowers Leanne
I think I do too Brian, thank you.

Very surreal image! Love this!
Thank you Braden.
I definitely like your infrared photos, Leanne. They change the landscape so much–and in a good way.
I think that is why I like them too Lois, thank you.
