Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign Mr Linky. Don't forget to visit each other. :)
Flowers are my favorite macros and these are beautiful. Thanks for the splash of color during the gray, dreary winter storm watch with 15-25" of snow expected before Tuesday morning. ughhh.
I posted a splash of vivid colour, but the rest of the photo would need a splash of vodka to make it acceptable! It was cold out. I love all these flowers. Thanks, Lisa!
Just back from vacation and getting caught up with your blog! Such gorgeous photos, as always. And I want to tell you I really really like the one a few posts back ("Reflections of Love"?) with the person reflected in the eye? Amazing shot! Loved it!
And on my way over here, I saw we are the same age but one of your sons is 21 and engaged, another had a baby recently and I have a 4-year-old. So funny we are the same age but in such different places. Did I mention this before? I don't remember but it just hit me again when I saw your profile!
so pretty! sigh. here's my new blog address. and you asked where i was 23 years ago when you had kids.. let's see.. I would have been about...5 so I would have been in kindergarten! hopefully if someone else looks for this advice though, they'll have it. its also a good reminder to me if we have kids again...
Wow, I'm first, how exciting is that? OK, it's not really exciting, just surprising.
ReplyDeleteLove your mums, Lisa, great colors, and the bugs are a bonus.
Oo-la-la... Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI luv flowers and there are so many of them here! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.
Just the right thing for dreary days!! Fantastic!

ReplyDeleteI posted a splash of vivid colour, but the rest of the photo would need a splash of vodka to make it acceptable! It was cold out. I love all these flowers. Thanks, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, just like kath said, a splash of anything is better than the deep freeze we have going on here.
ReplyDeleteMums are one of my favorite, and I think I can even smell them! What gorgeous colors!
