Default The sun is finally out ...............................

What a cold spring we have had but it appears the sunshine is starting to last a little longer. Well captured these today to share with you all, but I took these indoors in the Begonia House.

Bernz, What beautiful photos. I love the way you bring the viewer to innermost part of your flowers and all in such sharp detail. You have such a good eye for the beauty of a flower.

Hello Bernz, you do flowers like the sun does sunshine. I love this set, especially the last two shots, the detail and clarity of them both are simply the best.

I am glad you decided to spread a little sunshine Bernz, boy do we need some here in UK. Thank you for giving me that warm feeling in our zero degree day today. PAUL

Gorgeous! You know I always love your flowers. The last shot is fabulous! Glad the sun is out for you. I have a good friend in NZ & she's been complaining about having had an awful lot of rain in the past weeks.

Thanks Lindy - a keen gardener at heart but now that we live in an apartment we have to view what others do. Cheers, Bernz
