Good Morning Everyone,

Well the sky has lightened so no more snow, but no sun either!

I thought I would post my own sun in the form of this bright flower. I would like to tell you that I found it growing in my garden but, in fact, I snapped it at the supermarket!

Like all photo-addicts, I carry my small casio digital with me on most outings! I went with my husband to get some filters for the pond and, well, the rest is history. (My poor husband smiles sweetly at the other shoppers as I kneel, lean, sit, even lie to get the best shots of the flowers!)

Thank you for stopping by.
I hope you enjoyed the photograph.
Please feel free to offer feed back. :-)

The things you can find in the supermarket.

Hi Bev,

Indeed one flower can bring a lot of sunshine. Reminded me of the filter we wrote about - so that was the reason I made a WS this time.

TFS this beautiful "stolen" picture.

It is a lovley representation of sun, Bev. As always you have captured all the fine details perfectly and you have me addicted to the PP work, now. (have not tired a flower yet). Your PP work is perfect. Love how you have made the flower the whole image. Excellent.
Warm Regards

Hello, Bev.

Well, I never! Not only did you not grow this flower in your garden, you were also miserable enough not even to buy it! Snapping pictures in Tesco's, what a cheek. I think I feel a letter coming on....

But what a capture! Fabulous colour and as sharp as a tack. I leaps out of my screen! Wonderful against that black background - your PP work is outstanding!

Excellent!

Best Wishes,

John.

P.S. I won't write a letter - promise.

HI Bev
The colour against the black is luscious.
The light shining on it makes the center very inviting to any insect. You pp worked well as this is a lovely shot.
Getting on all 4 to get a shot can bring on a smile or stare but getting up will definitely bring on a few giggles.
