	Saturday, May 7, 2011 – Dream Flowers


	Ornamental Poppy – yep, if you had enough of these you could produce some opium from them – but not much, so they're legal, and odd. It's probably best just to sit in the garden and read Confessions of an English Opium-Eater (1821) – Thomas De Quincey describing his laudanum (opium and alcohol) addiction. We all, at one time or another, seek that pleasant dream state.

If you wish to use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me. And should you choose to download any of these images and use them invoking the "fair use" provisions of the Copyright Act of 1976, please provide credit, and, on the web, a link back to this site.

Technical Note:

These photographs were taken with a Nikon D200 – the lenses used were AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or AF Nikkor 70-300 mm telephoto. The high-resolution photography here was modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software.
