You captured them with so many details in these beautiful macros. The white decorations on the second photo look very pretty.
I like their strong purple color.
Have a great weekend!; 7/24/2010 10:07 AM

What an amazing view of a thistle. Quite striking. And I love your unknown orange fragrant rose. Have some idea what it might be.
