I’m completely stuck on photographing flowers lately.  Word of advice: Do not go to the Old Westbury Gardens on a scorching hot summer day.  It will not be fun.

This first one I decided to title Neglect.

Father and Son. There are actually two versions of the following photo: the first one is cropped and has been converted to black and white with selective coloring (which I know some people absolutely detest), and the other is, well, not, lol.

White Rose.

The following photos don’t have titles, neither do I know what their names are.  A botanist I surely am not!

This super cute little tot didn’t mind the cold weather at all during our photo shoot at Riverside Park in Manhattan, though her little nose and cheeks were starting to turn red from the chilly air!
