Delicate Ones

...flowers found in my front yard possibly planted last year by the previous tenant:) Again, I have no idea what they are and if they are flowers or weeds, but I don't care because they are pretty. I do not know if these will survive tonights cold weather - it may get down to the low to mid 30's! The blooms are about the size of a dime and the buds are really really tiny. click here for large To get an image like this I usually just rock back and forth just a little to focus, bring my arms in real tight and hold my breath! I can't use a tripod with my macro attachment when the flowers are less then 12" from the ground.

 

We are actually under a "frost warning". This morning is snowed several inches not to far from where I live and there were several accidents the opposite direction of peoples cars sliding down the hills due to ice early in the morning. It is May isn't it?
