Since I’m not doing any traveling this summer, I’m spending more time photographing at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland than I have in recent years. Here are a few photos I’ve taken in their rose garden recently.

When you think of roses – you might think of a red flower – with a long stem. But there are so many other members of the Rose Family! Here are a few photos of members of the rose family that I’ve edited recently.

I’ve recently added a new photo – Blush Parasol Spary Rose (Yellow & Pink) to my website at https://beautifulflowerpictures.com/store/blush-parasol-spary-rose-peach/

I fell in love with these Blush Parasol Spray Roses when I first saw them. There were so many beautiful soft colors in the petals. And then as they opened up, I saw circles of shades of peach and pink.

Roses at Brookside Gardens

by hankinslawrenceimages | Jun 14, 2018 | Rosaceae Family

Over the weekend I spent some time photographing in the Rose Garden at Brookside Gardens in Wheaton, Maryland. Even with the heat and the rain we’ve been having in the DC area, I found plenty to photograph. All these photos were taken with my Lensbaby Velvet 56 lens. I usually don’t talk about what gear I use to take my photos – but in this case, I choose to use my Lensbaby since I knew it would give me the nice soft out of focus backgrounds I wanted in my photos. It’s a whole lot easier to minimize flowers that aren’t in great shape when you can easily capture them in softer focus.

I thought I’d share a few of my photos from Brookside Gardens with you today.

Today I’m sharing the final set of roses I’ve recently photographed in my studio – a set of High Magic roses. Like the High Intensity I shared last week, these roses were intensly colored – this time in red and yellow.
