My favorite field trip during the Flower Photography workshop I gave at Maine Media Workshops was to Avena Herb Farm in Rockport, Maine. Avena Botanicals has a wonderful garden for photography where they make herbal tinctures, potions and salves the old-fashioned way: by hand, from botanicals (which is what is shown in the photo). But most of all, this is a place of spiritual beauty and serenity. Well worth a visit any time you are in the area!
