Today's Flowers

There's a new feature that my friend Luiz Santilli Jr. is doing. It's called Today's Flowers. Check it out. These flowers are from a friend's front yard. I was waiting for the carpool, and I had the camera with me and... you know how it goes, right?

  15. Sir Craver,

    Thank you for the very kind comments. Sorry, the internet has been the last thing on my mind here in the Yukon - but I simply had to visit you today ....

    Can see you're having great fun with that camera.

  20. I haven't seen balloon flowers in a while. They come in other colours but I do like the blue the best of all. It looks really nice with that yellow daylily - a good colour combination!
