Thank you, Angela. I made those turtles years ago and they wander around the garden.

The first three photos were shot on a whim. I had been shooting indoors and decided to go outside and do something different for a few minutes. These were shot at f16 for depth and I used the on camera flash for fill and to help offset breeze induced motion. It was a very overcast day but I was pleased with the results.
The last two shots are just pretties from the garden that were shot on another day.

Gorgeous variety of flowers, Carol. The downloads are awesome, especially the fennel. The yellow just pops against the pretty green background.

Thank you, Jane. The Fennel is my favorite of these shots, too. It is about 4 feet tall with lots of blooms. It makes me think of Queen Anne's Lace except for the color.

Good morning, Merry, and thank you! I love the look of Cosmos with their big colorful flowers. I just wish I had better luck with them.

Carol, you have a stunning garden. It is a real chore to grow flowers here. It's either a late freeze, hail, sleet and sometimes snow and the growing season is very short. You indeed have a "knock out" rose. Lovely images.

Thank you, Rowedean. We usually have a good spring growing season starting in February and then again in the fall. Summer is so hot that a lot of plants decline. Fortunately you have beautiful scenery to make up for the limited gardening opportunity!
