Three Lilies

A simple trio of lilies shot on a warm summer day in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  It seems that I like to shoot these flowers on my birthday.

Dried Tulip Blossom

I waited a bit too long to shoot this red tulip blossom. It sat on my desk and slowly dried out. And I have to say, I'm quite pleased about that. The texture and shapes of the petals in this photograph are much more interesting now than if I had shot the freshly cut flower. Happy accidents! The blossom was shot with one light slightly behind on the right at about 60 degrees from horizontal. 6 focus stacked HDR shots (3 bracketed images each). Processed in Lightroom, Photoshop, Topaz Glow and Impression, On1 Effects, and Nik Effects. Copyright 2017 Scott Norris Photography scottnorrisphotography.com

Paint Brush

A worn paint brush on a (mostly) white painted canvas. This image was inspired by the phrase "an expensive camera makes a great photograph just as much as a paint brush makes a great painting." I thought I'd use my expensive (to me, it was) camera to photograph the paint brush in action. I'm still waiting for the masterpiece to happen. ;-) Copyright 2017 Scott Norris Photography scottnorrisphotography.com
