morning glories

I don’t usually like morning glories. They send runners under the ground, as well as climbing on and choking out everything around them. I have often marveled that they sell seed packets for them in the stores, wondering who in their right mind would plant them on purpose–since in my yard they are second only to the english ivy in menaces that need to be removed (and only slightly behind dandelions and buttercups in weed warfare). However, I was out walking last summer and spotted these particular morning glories back-lit with sunlight, making their centers glow in such a way that it was really quite lovely. So for those who really like them, but don’t necessarily want the heartache that goes with having them run wild in your yard…here are some pretty pictures to enjoy.

morning glory 2 by Dawna Morton ~ see it framed

An elegant focal black and white macro photo of two white morning glories. Dramatic sunlight shines translucently through these blossoms’ petals making the centers glow with light as well as throwing the rest of the flowers in light and shadow. One flower is enveloped in warm happy sunlight tones, while the other is black and white, causing it to appear cooler, sad, and lonely.
