Hydrangeas flower in bunches, so these few lonely petals are quite a contrast to how they look in full bloom. Sort of like the contrast of the blue sky and dead flowers. I don&#8217;t have a macro lense, so I stood back and zoomed in on the dried flower petals. The details of the petals got my attention. I took this from a low angle, so the sky would be in the background.  I took several other shots of these flowers.  They are on my <a title=\"Online photo album\" href=\"http:\/\/picasaweb.google.com\/ghegenbart\/WinterHydrangeas\">Picasa web site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This photo is a little dark. I did play with the fill light in Picasa a little to try to bring out the flower more. You can see some other shots in the album that have better exposure, but I like the composition of this one the best. January has been pretty cold and very dry in California, and this shot seemed to capture that for me.<br \/>\nThe image is on <a href=\"http:\/\/beta.zooomr.com\/photos\/5406@Z01\/714459\">zooomr<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Winter Hydrangea Hosted on Zooomr We have several hydrangea bushes in our yard, most of which have been pruned, but not this one.
