May Photo Project: May Flowers

Some more from me

Some different looks at a little weed.

OK since Roger broke the ice with his dandy puff I feel safe posting mine now. Well It use to be a flower just to prove it I'll also post a relative. I'll call the two together Yesterday and Tomorrow. I'll throw in two that I posted over in the N&W forum as well.

The flowers around my house are pretty limited so here is another shot of some bleeding hearts. We did notice a few tulips had sprung up over the weekend, so hopefully I can get some shots of those.

Some lilacs and something i'm not sure what it is. Thats about all I can find aroun the yard so far.

here is my effort! I am not a botanist so I have no idea what it is called.

Some Creeping phlox (spl?) in one of my flower gardens

My wife recieved some Gerbera Daisies for her birthday today. Here is my rather feeble contribution.

Skyman, it looks like a torch lily to me.
Beautiful shots, all.

Dude!

You are rocking my world with these shots Larry!

How does an old grump like yourself get down so low to take these kinda shots? You must be one dedicated photog...:D

Some more Agapanthus...

A few more...

A couple more from the flowers at work. Trying my hand at some macro this time.

This one appeared in its "pure" form in the critique forum. This is my "print" version - Ortonised and framed. It's called Bluebells and Leaves.

Cheers

I'm not much of a fan of flower shots, but the project resided in the back of my photographic mind, The reflections of the flowers on the table caught my eye.

I've been waiting for these Pink Intuition roses to bloom on the bush. More to come.

Not a typical May flower but I see I'm not the only one posting one.
These were so late because I forgot I had them and didn't plant them until Feb. when they should have been coming up.

All taken yesterday after an all morning rain.
