One of my favorite flowers to photograph in the fall is chrysanthemums. I’m always amazed at all the colors and varieties I see at local botanical gardens. Of the thirteen types of chrysanthemums – the spider mums are my favorite. They all have such wonderful structures and textures in the blossoms.
Here are some of my the spider mums I photographed this year.
