I Can't Pass Up a Lupine Photo


    Lupines are one of my favorite plants, and for a photographer, they have a lot going for them.  Their star-shaped foliage hold raindrops, like they were jewels, and their elongated blooms are colorful and are prized by the bees.  Even when they are tiny and just beginning to grow, Lupines are photogenic.  

    Here is a photo of an immature Lupine flower as it is just beginning to show a blush of color at its base.  As the flower matures it will eventually grow to be a colorful stalk, a foot (30cm) tall.


    Here is a painting I did of a Lupine flower:
