I have an odd habit. I buy flowers at the grocery when I am feeling down or feel the need for more color in my life. Well, that’s not so odd, I guess, but the odd part is that I don’t like to throw them out until they are good and dead. I keep them around for a good long time.
I mostly buy tulips and sunflowers. They seem to last well and to age the best of the flowers that I can pick up easily at the store. I really like watching the process of that aging. They become more open and sort of unfussy. Their color intensifies as they grow older and begin to dry out. I like that. They make wonderful fodder for a photographer like me and make me think that growing older may not really be that bad.

The lighting and shadows in these shots is truly beautiful! Would make lovely notecards or prints... Especially that last one.
I like your viewpoint on aging too. Might as well appreciate it because we don't really have an option (if we're lucky!)
They are very painterly, These would look good a a large print and framed.
Very nice photos and orizinal idea !!!
