Default Bunches of Flowers, Squared.

Here's a few more from the--Bazillions? Gazillions? Brazilians?-- of Ranunculus from the Flower Farm in Carlsbad, California. The Windmill is a restaurant near the fields.

Pretty in Pink

How does my garden grow?

Thanks, Patrick. The windmill was not intentional. I just happened to be sitting close enough to the ground to catch a glimpse of it across the tops of the flowers.

You know that im a big fan of your collage sets. the colours are gorgeous and yet soft. I can smell the fragrance and feel the gentle breezes..Its like falling asleep and dreaming of far off places. the windmill takes your mind to holland with images of clogs and dutch girls..very nice. See you get my imagination working lol

Lindy, Love the inclusion of the restaurant. It might not have been intentional, but once you saw it, I'll bet you knew it had to be in there. All those flowers must have been quite a show!

You know how it is. You just hope it turns out to be something--often it's not. Then the fun moment of seeing it on your computer screen and thinking "something!".

Imagination working is good. Having you as a fan is the BEST! I had a Hans Christian Anderson moment when I first saw the image, too.

Yea, Mike, I was crouched down in a drainage ditch--you know the crazy things we do for a shot--and completely focused on these flowers in the white "ribbon". The white row is particularly pretty because it is mixed with a few other colors.

Hmm. What a nice phrase: Happy eyes. That perfectly describe what I felt when I saw your dandelion pics. I'm glad you like them because, and I hope I don't grow annoying, I have a few more to share.
