Glazed Flower Pot: Place all food in glazed flower pot saucers, which are easily cleaned. Both ducklings and goslings must have fresh, clean water available at all times; use widemouthed water bottle.
For the purpose of obtaining unity in a room, some of the furniture covers may be in the same material as the curtains. In many instances, a colorful glazed chintz that has been chosen for the curtains may be repeated in slipcovers for one or two chairs or a sofa, with cushions made of a plain material, either plain glazed chintz, taffeta, or satin in colors appearing in the chintz pattern. Plain glazed chintz is a particularly good choice for use in rooms where wallpaper and a patterned rug have been used.See Also Market For Flower Pictures:There need be no question in your mind about the market for flower pictures for good flower photography. One of the big slide film dis¬tributors has found flower fanciers the most consistent buy ers of all among slide collectors, even though the pictures offered are strictly of specimen flowers. These cannot possibly have the same appeal as pictures of flowers grown by the buyer in his own soil. The only flower fancier who is not an eager prospect for pictures of his blooms is one who has never seen a color slide transparency of a beautiful flower projected. A close-up of a lovely flower on a screen is a sight to make anyone, flower lover or not, gasp at its beauty.
Perhaps the best way to market for flower pictures your pinup pictures is through one of the picture agencies (see the listing in Where and How to Sell Yow Pictures, bibliography page 299). The agencies all like to handle girl pictures and they keep abreast of the fluctuating market for flower pictures.
On The Other Hand See Flower Garden:You might think that cutting fresh flowers both for friends and for the homefront would quickly deplete our flower garden. Not so. Rather than denude various parts of our permanent flower garden to fill a vase, my wife and I have included an old Victorian idea in our garden plan: a cutting garden. We grow an abundance of annuals for color, plus a few choice perennials, all specifically grown for bouquets.
With this equipment, you will be able to produce those startling close-up pictures which, when enlarged by projec¬tion on a screen, seem to magnify the original beauty of the flowers. And these are the pictures which your clients cannot duplicate with their own cameras. They are the shots which will establish you as a flower photography specialist. The other pictures you have occasion to shoot, those showing garden layouts and pleasant clumps and clusters and masses of flowering plants, will take care The best sources of customers for your flower photography are the garden clubs and the flower clubs in your commu¬nity. If you don't know the flower clubs, get in touch with a florist for the information you need. |
