August 7, 2012 -- hydrangea

Long day. No energy, so I'm posting something I took a photo of a few days ago. It's hydrangea blossoms drying by the "evaproation method" in the windowsill. See how low the water level in these vases is? By the time the water evaporates, the hydrangea blossoms will have dried, maintaining most of their color.

There are also a couple of plume poppy stems (with seed structures and blue-green leaves attached) in these glass vases.
