Hi everybody! I'm having a little break at the moment.
With all that greyish life (pollution, cars, buildings, cold, rain, winter ...) I need colors, nature, warm and sun!
This shot was taken to test my pentax M 100mm f:2.8 on a sunny evening of October 2009.
It seems possible to make great bokehs, but I haven't had many occasions to use it yet...
SOOC + Watermak.
Here is another fist bloom frome Peters cross second bud opeened only one or two days and will probably still grow some.
This is one of the first flowers I photographed yesterday at the Dahlia Garden in Golden Gate Park. Many of the flowers, such as this one, were covered with moisture. It was foggy and I could feel the moisture in the air.

I’d noticed these pink flowers on my way to work in my office’s backyard. It was an overcast day which helped push the beautiful colors of the flower and the leaves forward · Istanbul | Turkey
Bu pembe çiçeklere atölyemin girişindeki küçük bahçede rastlamıştım. Hava biraz kapalı olduğu için çiçeğin ve yaprakların renkleri kendilerini belirgin bir şekilde gösterdiler · İstanbul | Türkiye
Pink Petals
This beautiful soft pink flower is decorated with Swarovski crystals. Various shapes and sizes create lovely texture and shine. (the photograph truly doesn't do this piece justice..it REALLY SPARKLES in person)
Feminine and soft these make the perfect accessory for weddings and any other special events. Classic and beautiful this can be worn with everything! Approximately 3 inches around. Double prong clip secures this piece in any hair style.
Pink Peony in our garden. Original colors... no postprocessing, only cropped.
The peony or paeony (Paeonia) is named after Paeon or Paean, a student of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and healing. Asclepius became jealous of his pupil; Zeus saved Paeon from the wrath of Asclepius by turning him into the peony flower.
Pfingstrose in unserem Garten: hier kann man prima die drei gelben Balgfrüchte (Samenstände) erkennen.
Wie viele andere Heilkräuter wurden Päonien im Mittelalter in den Klostergärten kultiviert. Von hier aus gelangten sie auch in die Bauerngärten. Heute werden das Rhizom, die Samen und vor allem die Blütenblätter der Pfingstrose gegen Gicht eingesetzt, daher auch die Bezeichnung Gichtrose. Bis ins 19. Jahrhundert hinein wurde die Pfingstrose als Mittel gegen Epilepsie eingesetzt.
Die Samen der Pfingstrosen wurden auf Ketten aufgereiht und zahnenden Kleinkindern zum Kauen gegeben. In Bayern nannte man die Samen deshalb auch Appoloniakörner – zu Ehren der Heiligen Appolonia, der Patronin der Zahnleidenden.
Als Heilpflanze hat die Echte Pfingstrose heute keine praktische Bedeutung mehr.
Die Pfingstrose tauchte in den Kräuterbüchern des Mittelalters immer wieder auf. Da sie von den Benediktinern über die Alpen gebracht wurde, bekam sie auch den Namen "Benediktinerrose". Von den Klostergärten fand sie rasch den Weg in die Bauerngärten. Im Spätmittelalter entstand die gefüllte Form der "Paeonia officinalis". In der christlichen Symbolik stand sie für Reichtum, Heilung, weibliche Schönheit und galt als "Rose ohne Dorn".
My Orchids are blooming ... anyone who has even attempted to grow Orchids can appreciate what dedication and perseverance one has to have to achieve this ... well at least one who is not a professional ... wonderful rewards!
NO INVITES with BIG SPARKLY GRAPHICS. PLEASE, TRY TO RESPECT MY WISHES.
I prefer simple honest comments, rather then a copy & paste of an award code.
Many thanks!

Who doesn't like chocolate! Well even if you don't...how can resist these adorable poodles. These were literally thrown together as a Bunch (10+ peopler) thank you items for my women's club Year End luncheon. I hope they like them...well like I said who doesn't like chocolate?
This picture shows a close-up of the stamped poodles! Which were actually done in October...but I had a few left.
On the horseback ride, there were several big trees with no leaves, but these big pink fireworks flowers all over! The guide said that when it flowers, no leaves... when no flowers, it has leaves. The guides pulled several unopened blooms and handed them to a few of the female riders and told us to shake them - and pop! They opened up! So pretty! I found what it is! Bombacaceae! www.montosogardens.com/pseudobombax_ellipticum.htm
