Wildflower Photography

I love the outdoors and nature. It is an excellent place for building relationships, personal reflection, improving health, and, most importantly, connecting with the Creator. During my high school ecology class, the instructor, Marty Miller, required us to memorize different species of birds, wildflowers, trees, and wild edible plants, among other things. While we were learning about different species of wildflowers to identify them in the wild, the instructor assigned us a wildflower photography collection project. This began a passionate hobby for me, photographing as many Southeastern United States wildflower species as possible. Thus, I owe my excitement for this hobby to Mr. Miller.

 

I thought I'd share a little of my passion with you. I'm by no means a professional when it comes to photography, but documenting my experiences in the outdoors with pictures. Here is a small portion of my wildflower photography collection. I will continue to add to it over time.
