  • Purple Haze

    I had forgotten about this one. It had been an amazing day of early summer flowers in Butchart Garden. My memory of the day is coming across one amazing planting after the next. It was a day of beauty fatigue. (Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, 2012)

    More recently I’ve been trying to improve my skills a bit. The hummingbirds in Costa Rica were a good challenge (expect to see more). (La Fortuna, Costa Rica, 2026)

  • She Does Take a Good Photo

    Another one of my favorite photos of Kathleen. The flowers are nice as well. (Victoria, British Colombia, 2012)

  • Purple Sass

    Cone Flowers in our own garden. (Whitefish Bay, WI, 2008)

  • Purple Flash
