Friday Flower Fiesta (October 12, 2012)
Red and yellow flowers have always been the bane of my flower photography. I never could get the pictures to look anything like the flower. It’s the reason why I made the Friday Flower Fiesta in red and yellow. I figured that would be the only red or yellow flower you’d ever see in my blog.
Then, a couple of months ago, I was at a flower art exhibit downtown and the artist happened to hear me when I casually commented, “I wish I could get my red and yellow flowers to look like those.” He told me the secret, and it shall remain a secret, except for those willing to bribe me; I have a PayPal account.
Today’s Friday Flower Fiesta is dedicated to all the Red people, and the Blue people who are forced to live in Red states.

“Today’s Friday Flower Fiesta is dedicated to all the Red people, and the Blue people who are forced to live in Red states.”–Love it!
Wish you were in my garden with your cameras (mostly blue for non-political reasons, with accidental red upstarts here and there).
Looks like you’ve mastered the secret!
Loved 5 and 6.
Damn these are good…
A great way to start the weekend!!!
Nice photos but you should have a little pity for red people who live in blue states (as in NY). Boo-hoo, boo-hoo.
I do! These flowers are for all red people everywhere, red or blue states!
OUCH!!
Watching rain coming down, your sunny flower goodness is appreciated
I like them. No. 2 especially. It has the appearance of being an oil painting.
love your flower fiesta.. just staring at those lovely flowers gives an instant feel-good happy feeling.. wonderful post russel.. looking forward to your next flower fiesta.
Beautiful photos – I love your comments about living in blue states too – even though I am more of a red than a blue
beautiful pics of the lovely mute ones.
pics 10 and 12 were my fav. thanks a lot for this:)
Spectacular red…
Gorgeous! Lovely!
You’ve done well with the secret!
Awesome
