Because I am not busy enough with finding a house in Alabama, getting my house ready to sell, getting ready to pick up the pups in North Carolina, and dealing with my mother’s recent illness… I decided to groom the dogs yesterday in hopes of getting some wildflower photos this morning.  The bluebonnets in Texas are amazing and I really haven’t utilized them in my photography much over the years.  Of course, with all that has been going on I was a little to late.  The bluebonnets hit their peak last week.  As I was driving around this morning looking for some options I stumbled upon a field of wildflowers and tall grass.  It looked like an interesting spot, so the dogs and I gave it a go.  Interestingly, it seems that bluebonnets do not have to be blue!  This field was mostly red bluebonnets, which seems like an oxymoron, but instead was a genetics experiment.  You can read all about the creation of this color variation here.

In any case, I did get a few notable photos of the crew in the red bluebonnets and tall grass on this very windy and cool Tuesday morning.  ENJOY!
