I absolutely love the color these violet wood sorrel add to the woodland trails where we find them. The violet against the greens around them is such a wonderful combination. And their delicate nature can really be enhanced by the softness of a very shallow depth of field. I found these in the middle of May 2022 and I look forward to finding more next year and of sharing them with you.

Venus’ Pride

Looking back through the photos I’ve created this year I realize I skipped over showing you some of the spring wildflowers. So I thought today we would look back at some examples of Venus’ Pride, also known as large bluets, that I found in late May and early June. They are small and delicate looking, and have multiple flowers clustered in the inflorescence. Some of those I’ve photographed appear almost completely white with just hints of color, while others do show off some nice coloration. I hope you enjoy them.
