Star of Bethlehem | #100DaysofScanography Day 2 #100dayproject This beautiful little white star-shaped flower is considered invasive in many areas because of how difficult it is to keep it from spreading wildly. Gardeners don't recommend planting it but say that if it's something you absolutely must have in your garden plant it in containers or a lined bed so that the bulbs don't spread.

Hydrangea Study
The #100DayProject kicked off around the web today and I decided to join in. I'm doing 100 Days of Scanography (Image making with a scanner) which I love because of the unique depth of field. I have some projects I've been wanting to do with the scanner so this will be great practice. I'm going to begin by focusing on plants, specifically those in my yard so I can learn more about what's growing in my yard. Hooray for multi-purpose projects!

Botanical #1
There is something alluring about dead flowers. I have always been reluctant to throw them away. Watching flowers slowly wither and decay reminds me of life, death, and the passing of time. It reminds me of how fragile life is, and of how precious our moments are.
Scanner Art
One of the projects in my Digital Imaging class introduced us to using scanners as a means of creating art, aka scanography and scanner photography. The extremely shallow depth of field and flat plane create a really interesting look. These three images didn't make the cut for my portfolio but I thought they were fun. Check out Scanography for more scanner art samples. Snake with Flowers, 2009 The Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog, 2009 Falling Baby, 2009
