Default Spring Florals

I'm so behind at processing shots that I've barely posted any. Here are another few from a walk in the gardens (as if there aren't enough flower posts to be had in any photography forum )

yes, that's true - but you are just now getting the warm weather and flowers are at their peak ..so post away with your flower photos - I've always been a big fan of selective focus if its done right and you certainly nailed it on all your images .. colors are very rich .. I like them all

Thanks Hayward I'm a bit of a selective focus junkie (especially when it comes to macros)

And thanks Fred. Sometimes I worry people get sick of seeing flowers
