Flowers…

 

Though I mostly take pictures of orchids, sometimes I’ll see some other flower that catches my attention.  These are some of my favorites, and I hope you enjoy them…

 

This sunflower is from Hyde Park in Chicago; it comes from a group which form a backdrop for my Nash automobile, which can be seen in the section of this site devoted to Nashes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While I wish I could say that this came from some interesting natural setting, this one and the mum below came from cut flower settings at a hotel.  They evoke a very specific memory for me: Shortly after having heart trouble in 1999, I decided to go to a previously scheduled professional meeting in Colorado Springs.  I didn’t feel very well, and spent a lot of time wandering around the grounds, taking pictures of flowers, wild and otherwise, and as time went on, I felt better.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This mimosa is in our front yard in Galveston.
