Wildflowers!

Below is a menu of wildflowers that are found in central Texas. I bought my wife a digital camera and I got bored one day and started playing with it. I started playing with taking close-up photographs of wildflowers. I accidentally got a few really nice shots. I kept playing with the camera and photographing wildflowers became an obession, as you will see on the following pages. I also have to know what I am photographing so I bought a few books on wild flowers. If I have anything mislabeled please let me know. If you are looking to identify flowers that you have photographed, I think that you will find this site invaluable due to the multiple shots of each flower that are pre sented. I have grouped the flowers according to color since it is easiest to find them this way.

I have been using Google's free photo software, Picassa. I've looked at numerous photo software packages and Picassa is the best for organization and it has excellent editing features also. Click Here to see a screen shot from my pc. It allows me to add the name, genus, species and other information about each flower. Below are links to the books that I have been using. I'm using a Sony Cybershot DSC-W5 camera for the photos. It may be inexpensive but it gets the job done.

Enjoy!
