1. Beautiful photos
For a beautiful time of year! Love the first one. The flower and bud almost seem personified.

5. Thank you. I too noticed that, and in my own mind
I called it Zinnia Mama and Baby

3. Oh Mira . . . I truly am yearning to
take photos of flowers and am patiently waiting for that season to arrive in my area.

That said, your photos just knock my socks off.

And your second photo . . . those two water drops on the petals . . . remind me of tears! *big sigh*

You have posted some fabulous photos here Mira. I am so glad you are a part of this group! :hug:

8. Thank you Callalily, you know what! I thanked you before
and must not have pushed the button to post.
I think I must have been overwhelmed by your really kind words.
I said something about having a guest room, and that you have more snow right now than we had all winter.
And additionally I said, that sometimes, in retrospect, I realize I do post some crap too, but that I like these four photos myself.

4. The water is the crowning touch to the photos.
I esp. like the blue spiderwort that has a "cup" of water in it.

So glad you got that camera. The pics are so crisp and alive!!!

7. Thanks Dixiegrrrrl. Pull out your own camera again! You once posted an entry.
It had lattice wooden fencing. I remember.
Always good to see you here.

9. Beautiful - the water droplets, so pretty.
Tomorrow I'm going to attempt to take a very close up shot of one single flower. I've never done that! Thanks, Mira.

10. Jealous.
My daffys are finally blooming. That's about it. You just keep on getting better and better at capturing the beauty around you.

11. The intensity of the colors and the..
texture are just great.
Something for me to strive for.
