Photohunters: Half


The photohunters theme this week is half. I had a half mind to photograph a half dozen eggs.
Photobucket
Then I thought, why not photograph a half dozen flowers.
Photobucket
My next thought was to photograph one half of a flower.
Photobucket
I went outside and tried to only include one half of a flower in the shot.
Photobucket
I had trouble deciding which flowers to shoot so I tried a lot of different half flower shots.
Photobucket
Then I downloaded my shots and decided to post a half dozen, half flowers.
Photobucket
For more participants, please visit the home of Photohunters where links are posted beginning Saturday mornings.

Well done, Carver!! I tried the "half a flower" trick, but I simply cropped one picture...it wasn't any good.

Wow Carver, this is such an incredibly beautiful collection of images. Love your take on the theme!

I also enjoyed your photos of NCMA - I went on Grand Opening weekend and didn't even notice the tall grass. That is so cool they are doing that.

Have a great weekend (sure hope we get some rain soon).
