Wisteria in Black and White

May 15, 2018 by Greg Molyneux

Low key abstract photo study of wisteria blossoms in black and white.

Those who have been following along for a while may note I don’t go in for straightforward photo titles. A literal labeler I am not. Yet here I am breaking my own rules with a boring name. Sometimes it is what it is; I beg you allow me this exception. This photograph has several notable […]

Identify Yourself

May 26, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Macro photo of a carpenter bee collecting wisteria pollen.

My brain gets the best of me. Often I wrap myself sideways in details that stand meaningless to most. Mired in Minutia: A Greg Molyneux Memoir. Case in point, I present this photograph. I’ve been scrutinizing Google images for days, sweating over proper bee identification. Is it a bumblebee? A carpenter bee? A rusty patched […]

Speak Softly

May 22, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Wisteria blossom macro photo with soft focus and bokeh.

Speak softly and carry a macro lens. And that’s enough Teddy Roosevelt for this post. Besides, I’m quite a loud talker. Despite being sans computer for the better part of the past month I was still out in my yard making photos. I’m sure my Mid-Atlantic flower peeps noticed the stellar wisteria bloom that manifest […]

Floating on

May 17, 2014 by Greg Molyneux

A macro photograph of a several wisteria blossoms. The diffuse processing lends a soft dreamlike mood to the picture.

I know. I’m going nuts with the wisteria photos. This one should be it. For this season anyway. I’ve come to appreciate my wisteria. It’s seasonal bloom makes the extensive maintenance of trimming (re: hacking) and shaping worth it. If you’ve never encountered a wisteria just know that left unattended its creepers will reach out […]

Homing in on Wisterias

May 16, 2014 by Greg Molyneux

A cross processed, close cropped portrait orientation macro photograph of a single flowering wisteria bud.

This photograph is a holdover from this past Sunday and represents a bit of a departure for me. It started as a standard landscape orientation macro shot that I wound up aggressively cropping and flipping to a portrait orientation. This is the first time I’ve ever done the latter and one of the very few […]

Wisteria when you’re near

May 11, 2014 by Greg Molyneux

A macro photograph of a freshly bloomed wisteria flowering plant. The shallow depth of field and deep vignetting evoke a moody feel among the flowers.

I made some time with my camera yesterday albeit it brief. A steady wind backed by strong gusts made for futile macro conditions. Or so I thought. Having just uploaded my shots into Lightroom I quickly saw there were some winners in the set—in fact there were several. Luck was on my side, I somehow […]
