This unique flower was in a bouquet I received for a birthday gift. I'm thinking it's a Chrysanthemum but if it's something else, please let me know.
Thank you all so much for your visits, faves and comments. Have a lovely day!
Small pink flowers much like the caps worn by pixies and fairies in the illustrated Enid Blyton books I used to read in my childhood.
For Macro Mondays - Shadow
I tried a few indoor shadow images using various light sources but was not really happy with any of them. So being a sunny day I decided to have a look outside. As I passed our grapevine I noticed the shadow of this tendril on a leaf.
The area photographed is around 65mm (2.6 inches) wide and 50mm (2 inches high)
Happy Macro Monday!
Lots going on at home these next few weeks so I may not be able to comment or fav as much as I'd like to. If it's OK with you, I may just be "fav'ing" for now. Stay well, be safe, dear Flickr Friends!
Playing with Frax Pro in my iPad.
Thank you for your visits and kind comments dear friends and visitors. They are very much appreciated-:)
I have a fascination for bindweed. Not a plant you want in your garden because you won't get rid of it, but I love the way it curls around other plants creating wonderful shapes.
Have a wonderful day everyone!

It is a perennial shrub or tree, very popular in tropical landscaping, which has a woody, erect, branched and thorny stem.

The historic Curly Phillips Boathouse floating nicely below Leah Peak on a windy day. Taken on last day of the season at Maligne Lake.
"Donald Nelson "Curly" Phillips was a Canadian guide, outfitter, entrepreneur, and explorer who was a part of many pioneering expeditions in the northern Canadian Rockies in the early twentieth century. He settled in Jasper, Alberta, and was involved in the development of mountain tourism in the region.
He built the historic boathouse in 1928 to accommodate the guests of his hunting and fishing trips. To boost his business, he raised the Maligne Lake rainbow trout, which he transported in barrels to Maligne Lake. Until his sudden death in an avalanche in 1936, he lived and dwelt in the boat house, which is now run by the Maligne Lake Tours." Wiki
