Petunias

One of the most attractive things about flowers
is their beautiful reserve.~Thoreau
The Birth Of The Flower
God spoke! and from the arid scene
Sprang rich and verdant bowers.
Till all the earth was soft with green...
He smiled; and there were flowers.
~Mary McNeil Fenollos

They were for Christmas, but the
Petunias are still blooming and showing off
in the large pot placed by the
front door.  They are thriving in the cooler weather.
Today I snipped a few and brought
them indoors, found them irresistable
to the camera lens.  A few moments
of Photoshop magic and they became
a work of art.
Enjoying the moments...all of them....Dee Dee
