The Red Ranunculus, Sarah Myers

Here are three flower images to welcome the new spring; the rich, flawless scarlet of a superb ranunculus bloom, the angelic shower of jasmine trumpets lighting the evening shade, and the perfect symbol of happiness, a yellow daisy against a cloudless blue sky. Daisy and ranunculus are growing in my sister's garden, a dream-like spot you can read about here; the jasmine is a vine I've placed in the pillared patio of our house.

Jasmine White
Sarah Myers, Photography

What are the colours of white? The pure scent of the jasmine blossom, the billowing shoulders of an unstained cloud; the pearl-cold, pearl-small dot of the moon among the palm-fronds; the delicious ivory of a new rose; that burst of exultant happiness, the Star of Bethlehem flower; the frail lace of an apricot bloom which is the delight of an eager bee. Here are many tints of white, the colour without shadow.

Amaryllis
Nature Photography by Sarah Myers

I am intrigued with the majesty of these tall Amaryllis blooms, the way their grand form combines with such fresh, cheerful colours of red, white, and apple-green - or we should say, Amaryllis green, for it too is unique and irreplacable... A towering crown of flowers swaying against the clean blue sky.
