I came across a couple of beautiful flowers in my daughter's Florida garden a couple weeks ago (still a little early on NE Ohio)

That photo causes me to have the same feeling I would have looking at a painting of a famous artist.

I guess my comment was misunderstood.  I would have wanted to look at it for a long time, because it was a scene I would have made me feel like I wish I were there.

no shift key, dirty plastic ...   

... sounds like you may need to monitor all your pets activities during the day with a hidden camera.

unfortunately i am currently without companionship of critters, unless you consider the mice who occasionally end their lives in one of my traps to be companions...

The dirt did not interfere with the photo - nobody would have known if you hadn't said so.  I believe that is one of your favourite spots for taking photos.  It's a good one.

it is very nice and one of my favorite spots to look out upon the world. that last line of mountains is all the way across lake Champlain over in vermont...

Morning....yawn...not normally up at this hour at dawn but the flaming cat had other ideas...

It's the first day of Winter and not a cloud in the sky and it's 5C... heater on and just sitting with a cuppa and watching the blood red sunrise...

That does not bode well for us, we are in drought and it is not looking good...I have never known it to be so mild, windless and dry for this time of year...

I dread Summer and the bushfires that will come with it...

These hills should be green and a foot high in grass..the dams should be full this time of year...

This is less than an hour's drive north of me.. Qld and NSW are flooded and we are desperate..going to be hard times for many....

does that hold in the southern hemisphere... or more rightly, in different prevailing wind directions/

still fishing for puns in your flower article, amac?

Plant a few if you’d like; they won’t’ soil the article & some will root for their favorite punsters. Or, petal the puns elsewhere, in more fertile domains.

Stop me when you’ve had enough. But first, what germinated your question?
