Day # 24-Awesome August Challenge-Bloom'in Yellow!!DSC_7963

I caught these beautiful yellow flowers as they were bathing in the morning sun..30 second challenge brought me outdoors to snap these...I just love the way the petals are outlined by the bright sunlight..I didnt know that they were facing away from me untill i brought them up on the screen...And i liked them even better then!!

God Grant me the serinity..
to accept the things i cannot change..
The Courage to change the things i can..
and the wisdom to know the difference..
The Serenity Prayer

You caught these in perfect lighting, Ellen. And perfect pov! I love the Serenity Prayer. Thirty seconds ... and so early in the morning? No way could I capture something this beautiful. @cromwell I thought that you didn't like flowers! :)

[Cromwell]

@karenann -- I had a moment of weaknes. i blame heat stroke. I do like flowers. I just don't like photographers who waste their time photographing them. LOL!

[karenann]

I forgive you ... how could I resist your humor and your charm. You do make me smile everyday, Cromwell. But, unfortunately, when all else fails, I do have to waste my time taking pics of flowers and weeds. I now cringe and think about you everytime I upload my flowers. :(
