Flowers, anyone?

I told A & J that their flowers are worldwide popular – they are very pleased!

I like this one flower: ( a lily?  Many people here know far more than I do-correct me if I’m wrong please)

Nice, hmm?  Let’s go macro on it with my point and shoot Nikon:

not quite in focus though...

Ok, I heard that!  It is a pretty fower, isn’t it?

I really like the color of these roses!  Maybe not the most manly color, but show me a woman who wouldn’t like these:

In fact, I think they’re worth a second look:

But then, these regular old red roses are pretty nice too!

See, they are so red that they just overpower my digi-cam’s resolution and so look almost fake, don’t they?

Portland is the Rose City…one of these days I will go up to Washington Park, to the Rose Test Gardens, where they have a bazillion different roses of all colors.

Ya.  One of these days, eh?

Ah, so pretty. God knew what she was doing when she invented them. They’re all about sex of course.

Hey! These aren’t orange! j/j I like the close up to the white lily. Very nice. You seem to be getting even better at taking pictures.

absolutely beautiful! wish i could grow roses like that. take care,

Yes a lily..stargazer I think Man those roses are so vivid I can practically SMELL them. LIke many things f-ed up my man, the larger and more perfect the rose, like the kind from the florist, the weaker the lovely rose scent. Those bright pink ones look like they are a fragrent old fashioned variety. RYN–tsk, tsk…she was EIGHT in that photo, lol…..Linette

RYNs–well, I cannot take credit for the house itself since I am just renting, though I do love it. It has turned out not to be the best of ideas since it is so far from town, and with Tim being so sick he is isolated. BUt I can (well sort of) afford the rent since it is 25 miles from “town.” Nah, don;t like trees at all…Linette

Those red roses almost look like I could reach out and touch them. They are sooo beautiful. I love all flowers in all colors. All of these were very nice. Thanks for posting them.

I hate to ask but what is your ‘keyboard breasts’ list?

July 6, 2006

And why not my friend there would be many variations and we here would love to see them. Your photo’s certainly did them justice, and yes you were right with the Lily. HUGS and HUGSxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

enjoyed my stroll in the garden again this morning :0) There really is something abut roses … just beautiful.

I actually like the red roses a LOT more than the pink ones. 🙂
