My Cafe au Lait dahlias are hanging on...just. I have about 10 blooms in various stages. For this image I held an Omni quilted filter in front of the lens.

We moved to the beautiful state of Colorado from Minnesota when I was a young girl about 9 or 10 years old and I have lived here ever since. And I don't see us moving to anywhere else.
This was taken in my sister in laws beautiful green house!

I wonder, if I was a bug, is that how I would see the world?
Would I be able to make sense of the visual chaos?

My husband took a seat into the garden for me yesterday so I could get a few photos of my Night Silence dahlia. It was so good to be able to use my camera.
Then a play in Photoshop to get this frame within a frame.
I haven't been on Flickr much lately as my back has been very bad again. I managed to get a face to face appointment with the GP on Friday and after over two years we finally have a plan going forward. Stronger pain killers and more tests and hopefully a way to prevent more fractures. I am finally feeling more hopeful.
I apologise for lack of interaction but appreciate your understanding and will try to catch up with your photos.

"O, you living in the world of six directions,
accept the gloom and accept the bliss,
for those seeds buried in the ground
will one day grow into fruitful orchards.
Every seed will sprout above the ground
and from that source, fresh stems will grow.
If a few branches wither and dry,
the rest will bear fruit.
What is withered will yield to fire,
and that flame ignites joy in the soul.
What is not this, will become this,
and what is not that, becomes that!"
Rumi

I love visiting gardens - local favourites are Borde Hill and Sussex Prairie Garden - but I probably enjoy photographing flowers in my own garden more than anywhere else. Most of the gardens close to the public at 5pm, missing the warm evening light. This Cosmos grew from a pack of mixed seeds and is now very tall. I love the colour.

Anything goes for 2021 - Flowers or Floral Bouquet
I took this one using the Sweet 35. Then I started playing with multiple exposures...see the previous photo.
Flowers from my flower delivery last week.
Wishing you all a wonderful, safe seeking...stay well
Though Onohara has changed a lot since I first visited in 2008, some things remain familiar. Photographed on my first outing on my 2015 Japan visit. Minoh-shi, Osaka. November 21, 2015.
I used my iPhone's screen to reflect some light back onto the shell.
As we say: The reflector you have with you is the best reflector *winks*
Oh, and it's shot with my ultra wide at 40mm, doesn't look it though.
In hindsight I should have upped the ISO for a faster shutter speed.

The current Corona Virus lockdown in the UK is preventing me from going out to take my usual landscape/seascape shots so I have been staying closer to home capturing what is in an around my backgarden. So here is a shot of a lone daisy growing up through the grass of my lawn where I used my 50mm prime lens to create a very shallow depth of field.
Thank you for looking today and stay safe.
Small containers ready to fill in an orderly manner. (This is not my style, except when filing RAW photos.)
Inspired by Flickr Friday for #ABitOfOrder this week. If you'd like to see a different focal point or horizontal layout, and feel irritated by my preference for shallow dof, ask and you might receive. My husband and I don't see eye to eye on photography. But he's good at landscape photography, using f/8 and smaller apertures ;)
Now to fill these containers in an orderly manner. (Tidy is not my middle name; how did Flickr Friday know?)
Thanks for your faves, comments, and just for looking. If you borrow this, please link back to this page ;)

The finale of the season for these Broom pods is to release their seeds. When done, that's it. Season’s over.
