rose bud

Rose bud from the Denver Botanic Gardens. DBG is having a Japanese Beetle infestation, on a recent visit there was a volunteer going around hand picking the beetles off the roses. I found an old bug book copyright 1956 that indicated the Japanese Beetle was only located on the east coast- not anymore!

daylilly stamen

More flower stamen - these from a daylily. They dance around the edge of the image. I put my images on all kinds of things - mugs, puzzles, playing cards, etc. I took advantage of a free offer and will now have a shopping bag with this image.

bird of paradise flower

The bird of paradise flower has these beautiful long red stamen. A friend held up her blue purse to give me a background and 'Atomic Flower' is the result.

Blue Flax Forth

For about a month I was greeted with a bouquet of Flax Flowers right outside my back door, so had to take a picture of them. There is a little bit of red, white and a lot of blue in this mandala So thought it might be appropriate for the 4th of July posting. Enjoy the day!
