Title: The summer flowers begin
Post by: moyer777 on May 28, 2009, 07:03:53 PM
It has been so nice out the last few days, not only have I been able to Stargaze, but also take some pictures.  So I thought I would share some of the cool little flowers that are gracing our yard.  Enjoy.

Very pretty! Amy's garden I presume? My complements to a fellow gardener. :)  Nice photos, Rick...again, submit them.... ;)

Yeah, Amy's garden.  It's starting to bloom now.  Should have a lot more to share in a few weeks.  We are going to plant a small garden, but with Amy working we won't have as much time as we usually do.  I love flowers.

Two roses and a lily? Right? :) They're beautiful. The colors are very vivid. Did you saturate them or does your camera capture them as they are now?

two roses and a tiny pansy!  Macro does wonders.   Those are the actual brilliant colors.  No tweaking except for a slight color correction to make it a tad bit clearer.  Cool huh?

Rick - Do you have a high res pic of the wood with the hole in it? I'd like to set that one as my background for a while if you don't mind.
