Photographing Morning Glory Flowers

I have a special place for morning morning glories in my heart.  I created a painting back in October of 2010 of a little gray cat sitting next to a morning glory flower, which is based on a photograph I took of morning glories planted in my mom’s garden up in the San Bernardino Mountains.  Actually, I wish I had taken a picture of Buster dog standing next to the morning glories over ten years ago because this was the fondest memory that I ever had of these flowers.  Maybe someday I will also paint a picture of Buster next to a morning glory, but for the present I enjoy photographing these blooms.   Over the years I have taken many pictures of morning glories.

Many green worms have been chewing on the morning glory plant this summer, so I am glad the flowers were able to bloom.

  1. Such beautiful flowers! I think it is wonderful that you could grow them from a seed package.

    I used to plant flowers in front of my house when I still had time, but it was always from small potted plants that I got at the store. You must have a green thumb.

    1. Thanks, Aya! The morning glories along the wall were planted by the people next door, but the ones in the container are mine.
