I started taking photos of flowers in the spring of 2015. I got my camera in February, so I had a few months under my belt. I was at Home Depot, and I decided to buy a few flowers to see what kinds of photos I could take. The excitement of photography was still fresh, so I took hundreds of bad photos of flowers on the back porch and at my local YMCA's garden. Hundreds of bad photos led to hundreds of good photos. These are some of my favorites from that time.
