Nothing is more beautiful in the Spring than seeing the flowers bloom.  I have always loved plants and flowers but I seem to have the thumb of doom.  Especially with indoor plants.

When I plant things outside they tend to have a better chance of survival.  I'm sure with the help of God and Mother Nature.

Last year I planted a garden and I had zuchinni coming out my ears.  Heard that was one of the easiest to grow.  I would allow some to grow huge and enjoy watching my grandsons picking them.  To them they were monsters.  Needless to say my garden looked like a jungle which I have learned from that.  So this year I will try again but more sparingly.

I really enjoy taking photos of flowers.  Macro shots are really nice.  There are some beatufiul wildflowers out there along with the garden flowers I manage to grow. From Spring into the first frost of fall I have many opportunities with the camera.

I also have a friend whose house is surrounded with the beauty of flowers, plants and trees along with waterfalls running through.  I love to visit and at times I even get photos of butterflies and bees.

If I am not the greatest at growing flowers I can at least capture their beauty forever and share them.

Your flower pictures are beautiful! Growing plants has always come to me a little easier... but it's something that runs in our family. ;)

I love flowers too! I remember the term "flower power" and they certainly have their own magic!

Thank you very much Pat. I think I am a better photographer than gardener. LOL....
