Eye Candy Friday

June 6, 2008 By Carole

I took quite a few flower photos on Sunday morning. It had rained over night and I couldn’t resist the combination of blossoms and raindrops. This one, however, was “the shot of the day.”

I hope you agree. Oh, and have a terrific weekend!

    Oh, wow! If I was told to paint that in a class, I would have said it was too far out, no self-respecting flower would ever be that bold. But it’s gorgeous, and it’s real!

    Wow, what a fabulous iris! And the photo entirely does it credit too… think about entering this one in the county fair or something – it is truly award-winning.
