Azalea Life Cycle

A single specific bud on this large rhododendron bush was selected as the “subject” of this series on April 24th, 2010.

This camera position also allowed the bright red General John Burrows Covered Bridge to be a constant backdrop for the entire set of photos. The first image was captured in late April. Eight return trips were made to this precise spot, a couple times each week, to record the ever evolving growth progress. Here is the life cycle of one single azalea blossom.
