Default The Need to Post!

I find myself asking myself why I feel the need to post something everyday? I guess I have Addictive Behavior. I'm Addicted to DPS!

Classic Frangipani from our front yard in Thailand

Thanks for contributing to my Addictive behaviors.
Michael.

Each one has a beauty all it's own. Great set Michael.

Addicted to DPS or addicted to beauty and a sense of wonder that comes with photography? Your photos, here, would lead me to believe the later. I love your first flower shot. I discovered this plant in San Diego at Balboa Park...sound familiar? An iridescent beatle will always strike me as a lavious use of color though that does seem to be Mom Nature's way. The orange flower is so sunny. Thanks, Michael, for posting every day!

Hi Michael I know exactly how you feel, I almost feel like I might get into trouble if I don't find some thing to post. Like your pictures love the frangipani. I have a picture of frangipanis for a screen saver, I even try to grow them out here where I live, in pots so I can put them under cover during winter and away from the frost, not successfully but they are still alive and my white one flowers every spring.

These are all really wonderful photos Michael. Each so unique. I love the white flowers in the first, don't think i've ever seen them before. They are lovely. Same goes for the third one; gorgeous orange! And that second one...talk about eye-to-eye! Great images!

btw, your addiction is our pleasure.

Hi Michele! We have so many frangipani trees in our orchard and the property at Khao Yai; Various colors and sizes. In Thailand, they are easy to grow. I've see some over a hundred years old. My favorite is the classic though, I love the aroma and the purity.

My Macros are my favorites as well Frank! Although I do love shooting flowers. Thanks for the comments.
