Flower Arranging
Mary has been arranging flowers, on the flower guild at church, for about 2 years now. I accompanied her to Van‘s Floral Products in Doraville, GA, last Friday in hopes of a colorful feature. I noticed the average light is close to daylight temperature, but a gray card is necessary because of skylights and other light sources. It is also rather dim, as you would expect in a warehouse. “Mother’s Day is the most colorful event”, according to manager Paul Jenkins. Their busiest day for in-coming flowers is Monday so I plan to return again throughout the Fall season. Who says poinsettias are not colorful? Paul said the entire floor can get jammed with deliveries around 10AM.

She wanted a picture of her creation for this weekend, so I took this dark thing. The best examples of this type that I found on the web showed the arrangement in its environment, on an alter or a specially made stand. I want to set up for this “pose” with studio lights.
