Description
A carpet of wildflowers--mostly bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush--in front of a barbed-wire fence and tree bordering a lovely Texas farm. Shot on a sunny day March 26, 2012 on rolling hills northwest of Houston, on the way to Round Top. A Top Finisher in the "Spring in the Country" contest.
The date is included because wildflower seasons vary from year to year, and this year's crop of flowers arrived several weeks early. No one knew how the flowers would be impacted by the devastating statewide drought--whether there would be any (or many) and when they might bloom.

Nikon D80 with 50mm/f1.8 lens, ND filter, circular polarizer, hand-held, aperture priority, vivid color setting, no flash. No cropping or enhancements: a very natural, realistic Texas wildflower landscape photo--a classic.
Order a framed print for your wall today--or a box of notecards for yourself or friends. Share and enjoy the beauty of Texas! I ordered this as a greeting card for a friend, and I was very pleased with how it turned out (white background chosen).
