This week’s theme for myself and the 16 other photographers in our group was to photograph flowers...definitely one of my most favorite subjects to photograph. I need no excuse to purchase flowers for myself. In fact, when I am at the flower shop in our local grocery store, I am always asked if the flowers I am purchasing are a gift to which I reply, ‘they are a gift to myself.’ And, I mean that in the sincerest way. I treasure fresh flowers in my home. They bring beauty to our home and a smile on my face. So, flowers make me happy…yes they do!

Beautiful images! Now I want to run to the store to pick up some pink roses!!!
These images are so soft and beautiful. I especially love the bottom one with the reflections in the vase. Perfect processing.
What a lovely quote to go along with such beautiful flowers. You make me want to run to the store & buy a fresh bouquet of flowers.
Such lovely soft processing and use of light.
As I stood in the rain most of the day I should have been thinking about your quote… Might have made it a bit more tolerable! Sweet images and beautiful pping!
Beautiful, as usual! Love your depth of field and the quote you left us with. I will always try to have that in my heart so that every day is a great day!
Beautiful! I love buying for myself too
