Today was a beautiful day here. It was sunny, but not too hot. I spent about 15 minutes outside with my camera and got a few fun shots of the Mexican Hat flowers we have blooming in the back yard.
They're so pretty. I love their bright yellow color, and the textures of their centers.
When I lived in Oregon, the Black-eyed Susan was one of the flowers I loved to grow. They're pretty in the garden, and pretty in bouquets. What could be better?!
One of the new Whipper Snapper stamps coming out in July is fashioned after these whimsical flowers. Here's a sneak peek at a *portion* of the stamp image being released.
Wildflowers make me happy.
STUNNING!! The cone looks like honeycomb to me. I'm a Black-eyed Susan lover also. I don't really think there's a flower I don't like. I love that you photograph them since I don't have anywhere to plant your photos keep me in touch. TFS.
