In My Yard Today

This is my first scanner photograph, made entirely from what is growing in my yard at the moment. My friend Ellen Hoverkamp specializes in scanner photography and I have always admired her wonderful work, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Beautiful composition and colors.

[Milanie]

This is so beautiful! What wonderful color - your picture is great and your yard must be equally as pretty. I'm not sure what scanner photography is but this looks quite professional.

[Alison Tomlin]

Never heard of this technique before. A great job you've done. Lovely spring picture.

[Allison Maltese]

@milaniet You put the flowers directly on the glass of a flatbed scanner, leave the cover off and make a scan. The background becomes black, but you do have to retouch the dust and pollen.

[Fran McMullen]

Allison! This is so beautiful! I have been thinking of a project like this for a long time - great work! And I am totally jealous that you have all of those flowers in your yard too!

[rnardino]

That is a great composition!
