    I like the minimal element of flowers you put against the sky. It makes a nice picture.

    We have plenty of this flower and didn't know the name. Now I knew it and it has a pretty name like it. Thanks for the info!

    These are spectacular captures, Judy! I really like the last one--the Queen Anne's Lace looks like a tall tree with the cloudy sky in the background. Wonderful
