The Lily in Our Garden

The Lily in Our Garden

One of my hobbies is photography and I especially like photographing flowers.   The are so beautiful both in the garden and by taking photos of them, I can see our flowers all year.

This is a lily we planted Easter 2000,  in memory of my mom who passed away in January 2000.   It blooms every year and is so beautiful.    But sometimes I get creative with my photos and turn them into something even more special.

My sister was so excited when her granddaughter was born and I just happened to have my lily photographs on the computer so I started being creative with the photos since they named the baby Lily.   I took the photo and a picture of  Lily right after she was born and popped her into the center of the lily.

I then added her name, Lily Katrina and the day she “bloomed” along with her weight and length.  After I added the proud parents names, I forwarded my creation to my sister.  She loved it so much, they used it as the birth announcement.   Hard to believe little Lily will be 10 years old in June!

So if you like to take photos, be creative and see what unique ideas you can come up with!
