Desperation_DSC6869

I had a lovely day catching up with my sisters and my camera stayed in its bag until I got home after 5pm. It was then a mad dash around the garden looking for something to photograph, that wasn't in shadow, or being blown about by the wind.

beautiful color!

Lovely shades of purple . . . and it must be springtime down where you are whereas we've already seen flurries of snow where I am!

[Merrelyn]

@jyokota thank you for stopping by. We've had a long, cold (by our standards) Winter, not much Spring and we're now heading into Summer. The last couple of days have been in the low 30s (around 90f).

Beautiful desperation in purple!

@merrelyn -- here's hoping summer will be a nice one!

Love sweet peas.. can almost smell them

[Delwyn Barnett]

There is always something wonderful in the garden. Yesterday I saw a tiny little weed flower, so common yet I have never really looked at it properly - rather gorgeous it was. The sweet peas are beautiful.

We get a lot of wild ones growing around here, all pink!

[Pyrrhula]

A great close up capture of those lovely flowers.

A beautiful image, the colours are so rich. At least at this time of the year we still have enough light for the mad dash around the garden at the end of the day.
