One shot led to another: and next thing I knew I had a set. I took the dogs out for a quick walk before it got too hot. I did not take a camera because I wanted to beat the heat.

and next thing I knew I had a set.

I took the dogs out for a quick walk before it got too hot. I did not take a camera because I wanted to beat the heat. Passing along our fence, however, I decided to take a few iPhone shots (the first three) to show my wife how her yellow roses showed along the back fence. Next, some neighbors' flowers were just blooming or the light was right. So, attached is the result.

You are correct about that. I just mean to walk and then a flower catches my attention.

Another great set! Your wife is duly proud of her roses, I'm sure! Thanx for sharing.
