The beauty of wildflowers and native plants is often overlooked in nature photography. Jim has had a life long interest in our native plants and has just begun to capture that beauty. More species will be added as they are catalogued. One thing about photographing plants is that they don't run away, but light, wind and shadow will always make photographing them a challenge!

To view the wildflowers just click on the species name to open the gallery. Any of the photos found in our galleries can be prepared as a print, matted print, photo card or digital file for publication - see Order Information to find out how to get a photo.

If you have a question about a specific plant, or are looking for a species not listed here, please email Jim at jmundyphotography@yahoo.com
