I Learned - Flowers for the Soul
I learned that bringing in a pretty and fragrant bunch of spring flowers from the garden can be medicine for the soul. I've had a hard week with headaches, Tuesday night I even went to bed when my husband came home, earlier than my five year old. I don't normally get headaches and I'm hoping they'll go away soon. But a bunch of Freesias from my garden brightened my day, plus they gave me something pretty to photograph.
Shot with my 55-250 lens at a focal length of 80mm, so I could get bokeh in the background while still getting in the whole bouquet and vase.
