Sunday Stills, the next challenge: Flowers and Plants

First off I’d like to thank everyone who participates in this challenge. I never thought we would have such a weekly turnout, there are many weekly challenges and I’m humbled that so many folks follow this one and we are picking up new folks every week from all over the world, not just the U.S. and Canada but now we have folks from Australia, New Zealand, and the Netherlands and England. I just hope I can keep coming up with interesting challenges to keep ya’ll occupied. So with that in mind THANK YOU all!!

Now on to business, by now there should be some greenery in just about everywhere, so lets shoot some flowers and plants for the folks without flowers…:-)

See ya’ll next week. I’m off to get a few pics ready for my Monday Macro post for tomorrow at Thoughts from the Road http://edprescott.wordpress.com/  if ya get a sec stop by and say hello.

Later….Ed

  1. Yay!!!! Flowers and plants! Ed, does that include trees or do you want to save them for their own special challenge?

  2. Man, I’m going to have to take a heater out and warm the ground up so they’ll come out of hiding ;) Trees DO sound like another challenge…………….but could you at least wait a few weeks so everyone doesn’t think mine are all dead :(

    You do a wonderful job here Ed!!!! Thanks!

  25. Heres my crack at it.

    Normally I hate taking pictures of flowers. They are pretty but not my ideal photographic interest. I happened to come across somewhat rare flowers that I had never seen but recognized from school/books

    cheers

    …and if you feel like ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous go ahead and read the “I live to serve” post. Has not a thing to do with flowers, but it might provide you a cynical chuckle.

    However, this is a challenge to all bloggers. Do they know this plant? I have just found out about it, and would like to know it’s name.
