Default Mama always said, "pee on'y in the toilet"

I know, really cheesy joke. But it cracked my mom up till the day she died, LOL! So in my mom's honor, I post the first blooming peonies in my garden this year. They're quite similar, please feel free to tell me if there is one you prefer. Thank you as always for looking.

Peony


Again....tiny bit different angle, slightly different color.

These are beautiful! I love peonies. I definitely prefer the first one...prefer the color, angle/composition. Thanks for sharing!

Hiyas Susan, I really think #3 hits the mark !!









really nice soft pink colors, I like em both, water drops are more aligned in the first, but I like the whitish hightlghts on the tips in the second.

But the bird shot in #3 you didn't post is my fav :P

Vin
