Straight Out Of the Camera Sunday




Today, a couple of shots of the same hollyhock stem. I like the way each shot is very different.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

What are the rules?
  • On any Sunday you can post any photo you like (it must be one of your own)
  • that hasn’t been tweaked or altered in any way (cropping is OK).
  • In other words Straight Out Of the Camera.
  • Also, please link back to Murrieta365. Thanks.

    A creative presentation! The hollyhock, from these perspectives, looks like a very arty tower!

    I really like hollyhocks in the garden. They are such an old fashioned flower.

    The pictures remind me of how I wanted to much for my flowers to look when trying to draw a perfect flower. :-)

    erect against the garden wall
    they grow the tallest flower of all
    Like grandmamas they seem to know
    the reason why strange things are so

    The hollyhocks we had when I was a kid Jan were purple. I don't think I've ever seen red hollyhocks. They are so pretty! :)

    Those are really pretty! When I'm able to plant some flowers around the house, I want to plant some of these!

    Thanks for hosting this meme! It is such motivation to try and get the photo right the first time around. I got lucky with this one and didn't even have to crop it! I don't know enough about photoshop yet to do much with my photos anyway! ~ Beautiful Hollyhocks!
