Desperate for Flowers...

I was walking around the block freezing my keester, and saw these artificial flowers stuffed into planters on the porch of a house. I just couldn't resist them - the second and third pictures.

The first picture, however, is of a Dianthus I planted last Spring, and has survived frost and below freezing temperatures. The ground is hard like a brick, but this little flower just keeps going!

On all three, I had fun playing with Topaz and other effects software.

Taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000.

Sis, excellent set and the fake flowers are real good fakes, maybe sild?

Nice job on the processing! The third shot is very nicely composed, and you'd never suspect they're not real. Good work!

Great shots, colors and composition on all, CathyAnn !
Have to agree with the rest. The last two can easily pass as real flowers

I didn't touch them to see what they're made of, Bro, but they're not silk. They're just not delicate; they're standing up to the weather since their position on the steps leaves them unprotected. Thank you so much for the great comment and the thumbs!
