Something Simple

A simple tulip for a simple Saturday….

Flower Friday

Some Bleeding Hearts and Dhalias for a beautiful Friday….

Sunday Stills: Flowers and Wildflowers

I cheated this week! I grabbed my Canon Powershot G12 and did an impromptu photo shoot at a big box store that will be unnamed. I figured since I don’t have a garden and I did’nt want to use the loads of new wildflower shots from last weekend..what the heck..:-)

If I had to pick my favorite it would be the Hybrid Fuscia (second from the bottom) do you have a favorite? And did you spot the big ol’ Bumblebee???

Have a great week…Ed

Something Better than Yesterday

The Wisteria pics from yesterday were a bit drab so here are a few colourful shots for today. We have a Batchelors Button, Tickweed, and a couple different Trilliums..

Wildflowers and Bugs and Home for a Visit

How do I celebrate my Birthday? By going on a bughunt!!!  I’m home for a few days and get to visit with the folks and get some good food and get out to the wilderness for some pics. Spring is in full full swing and I’m anticipating finding some neat wildflowers and maybe a bird or two, and of course bugs.  I took the following pics on Tuesday in South Carolina while parked on an offramp, sometimes a good walk will produce some good pics…….

It always amazes me that such neat wildflowers come in such small packages, all these flowers were smaller than a dime….

 

Flower Friday..on a Saturday

I took these pics in April in Tennessee. In about 13 days I’ll be heading there for a visit and a couple days of wildflower hunting and I can’t wait! Not to mention I’ll be home for my B-Day.:-)

Flower Friday

Per my moms request here are some Trilliums for this week. She wanted to see some pics so she can paint them and she wanted to see some open trilliums. I find them on the Tellico River in Tennessee in mid April, hopefully on my next visit home next month I can get some new ones..:-)

I also have some yellow Trilliums somewhere deep in my archives too.

Flower Friday

More archive shots this week. Last night while driving through Illinois I encountered snow squalls and the temps dipped to 15 degrees F…. I’m soooooooo done with winter..:-)

Have a great weekend..:-)

Flower Friday

The first FF march, bring on the colour.  The Daffodyls are blooming all over Tennessee, its nice to finally see some fresh colour after a long winter but I don’t think we are quite done with it just yet….

Flower Friday

Its kind of hard to think of flowers today, I’m in Chicago, in a winter storm, that I had to drive through all night to get to Chicago. But I made it safe and sound and I finally get to check in with my e-mails. Yesterday in Ohio I picked up season 2 of Game of Thrones and Argo so I have some catching up to do..:-)

Here area c couple of nice warm flower pics and one with a busy bee..:-)
