My Anemone japonica aka Autumn Anemones has arrived late to my garden party. They revive a tired garden which is fading after a long, hot summer. Another sign that the seasons will soon change.

 

"It has taken possession of rather more of my garden than I desired, but it is so lovely that I cannot bring myself to root any of it out." ~ E. A. Bowles

 

I had fun painting my Anemone photo using Deep Dream Generator and Topaz Studio 2.

 

Thanks so much, Flickr friends for all your visits, encouragement, and inspiration.

I love the season of autumn, but as the Anemones start to fade, I know it's time to bid farewell. It's always too soon to say good-bye.

They have a strong relationship.

The clownfish lives protected by the anemone's stinging tentacles and the anemone feeds on scraps dropped by the fish. The clownfish secretes a chemical which stops the anemone thinking it is food.

Anémone

  

Baignée par la lumière

Ta beauté est entière

Tu sais te faire belle

Pour attirer les abeilles

 

Tu sais aussi te défendre

Avec ceux qui ne sont pas tendre

Beaucoup je t’ envie

Tu es si jolie

Anemone

  

Bathed in light

Your beauty is full

You know you make beautiful

To attract bees

 

You know as you defend

With those who do not tender

T much I envy

You're so pretty

Anemones are the star of the September garden, just when the other flowers are starting to fade, This lavender anemone 'anemone japonica party dress' shyly peeks out from the ornamental grass.

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

What a wonderful and unexpected surprise! Because of the bounty of abundant (some might say relentless, lol) sunshine this summer, the autumn Anemones are already blooming in August. This beautiful Anemone deserved to be painted.

*ALL VIEWS. FAVES AND COMMENTS ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED ...

After being gone for some months I am back to give this another try. It turns out I was not receiving notifications and everything else seemed to go haywire as well. So, at this point, I'll give it another try and have oodles of photos out there from all of you I have to catch up on! Thanks for your patience! :)
