I like flowers, easy subject matter and beautiful without enhancement. For improving on Mother Nature is a task only for the masters and they can’t do it consistently or as long. Plus the colors they provide are tough to make people feel though a photograph. But as I see others trying I’ll give it my shot today.
For these colors are right outside my door. And I love each shade. I have to start spending more time outside.
Almost looking back at you.

Must be my wife with the green thumb. I just take care of the grass cutting, tree trimming and weed killing.

My Mom had a real green thumb. I’ll never go there myself.
