Marigold - but not as we know it

The theme for today's CY365 is 'White'.

My intention for this prompt was to go into the garden and photograph a white flower, but there were none around today.

So I photographed a bright orange Marigold from my vegetable garden and with the help of Photoshop, created a white flower.

I love Photoshop!

Dew Drops

The prompt for today's CY365 is 'On The Edge'.

Thankfully, Mother Nature was happy to oblige and provided these delicate dew drops on the edge of a rose leaf.

A Touch Of Yellow

Isn't it great when something unexpected (in a good way) happens with your photography?

The prompt for CY365 was 'A Touch Of Yellow'.   I went out into the garden and couldn't find any yellow flowers.   Then I couldn't help but notice the ever growing weeds in the back garden, and saw the yellow centres of the Cobbler's Peg flowers.   Perfect for the prompt I thought.

Then just as I started to press the shutter, this little bee flew into the frame.  Now this was perfect.

Beginnings

This weeks Texture Tuesday theme is "Wise Words".

I thought about adding a quote, but decided to keep it simple.

Sometimes one word is enough.

Sharing with Texture Tuesday.

The Swamp Bloodwood trees are flowering beautifully at the moment.

This photo was taken just before the flowers began to open.

A welcome visitor to my garden.

Fungi

It's amazing what pops up after rain.

The garden was full of different kinds of fungi. Some of which I haven't seen before.





























These little pink umbrellas are my absolute favourite.

Do you think there are fairies nearby?

I figure it doesn't matter if I miss a day (or 10) here or there, as long as I keep taking pictures.
