The Flower Pot

I love to take photographs of flowers and I have a photographic library full of them. As much as I love flowers, especially wildflowers, I am notoriously bad at growing them. I plan to post shots of cultivars and wildflowers in a wide range of colors and from a wide range of places.

A Non-Flower Photo

 
*****
Okay, so there are not any flowers in this shot, but we do have foliage and a picture of a bird : ) 
As I have been neglecting this blog for that month or so I figured I better get moving. 
We will be heading to this location in April for my son's wedding.
