Pink, yellow, & Orange flowers - photography

 


"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better." — Albert Einstein


"Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature." — Gerard De Nerval



Soothing Effect: Pink is believed to have a calming effect on the mind and nerves. It can help alleviate feelings of anger, aggression, and neglect.

Stimulating Yet Soft: Unlike the intensity of red, pink's softer tone is stimulating without being overwhelming, promoting a gentle sense of excitement and vitality.

Jæren

"On the windswept plains of Jæren, nature paints its masterpiece."

"Jæren’s rugged coastline and endless horizons stir the soul and calm the mind."

"In Jæren, the sea whispers secrets to the rolling fields."





"Jæren, where the sky meets the earth in a symphony of light and color."

"The beauty of Jæren lies in its simplicity and raw, unspoiled nature."

"In Jæren, every wave and wind carries the spirit of the land."

"Jæren’s landscapes are a testament to nature’s serene and wild harmony."

"The fields of Jæren stretch out like a canvas, painted by the hand of time."



Vagleskogen is a dense forest consisting of spruce and pine mixed with hardwood. The forest provides good shelter on windy days.

In recent years, several areas of the forest have been characterized by low-level felling. Winter storms have also caused extensive damage to the forest in places. In addition to the 3.7 km long bridleway at the outer edge of the area, there are several unmarked paths that criss-cross the forest area.

The area is widely used for training and physical activity. Access to Vagleskogen by car is from Kvål ved Ganddal. Follow Fabrikveien to the car park or from the car park at Vaglemoen.

Just before the rain i picked summer & garden flowers for my reference photo

 


Flowerarrangement


"Where flowers bloom, so does hope." – Lady Bird Johnson

"Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower." – John Harrigan




"Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature." – Gerard De Nerval

"Flowers are the music of the ground. From earth’s lips spoken without sound." – Edwin Curran

"The earth laughs in flowers." – Ralph Waldo Emerson




Creating a wildflower and garden flower arrangement is a delightful way to bring the beauty of nature into canvas and then i take photographs, just for further reference and my planned projects.
. By combining different types of flowers and foliage, you can craft an arrangement that reflects your personal style and the season’s bounty.

I am Enjoying the process of selecting, arranging, and caring for my flowers, and let the natural beauty brighten the space.

I was enjoying them in a vase before I cut them up, just to see how they look like without the stem.

Enjoy your day ❤
