The tour continues of the Botanical Gardens. Unfortunately for now, everyone is going to have tolerate what I have archived in my files since I am sitting here with a broken ankle :( I fell in a small depression in the ground at a Family reunion yesterday. So I am grounded..literally. No weight on it, crutches only and keep it elevated as high as possible......can we say 'yucky' together? critiques still welcomed ;=)

Don't miss the beautiful colours of the rainbow while you're looking for the pot of gold at the end of it.

The clarity and colors are gorgeous, Mimi. Now you have every excuse to spend lots of time on Caedes! No consolation I know. I broke both bones in my left lower leg a few years ago, so I fully empathize with your situation. Get well!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Whoa, this is extreme. This is to date your best work for me. Well, I'm sorry to hear about your ankle. On the positive side, it's good it didn't happen a few weeks ago. You would have had to pay for my flight so I could take care of both of you;-) Great image!

I've been searching high and low trying to find even a single blossom on a water lily and you come out with this one!! Great job.

Sorry to hear about your mishap, but perhaps it's a good time to get a little spoiled :)

Hi Mimi.....

As you well know....I am so sorry about your broken ankle....which caused you to miss a part of the party.. no less....but you know....the next 'family reuion will occur before you realize it....as we both know...time does 'fly' by....LOL!

Before you know it...you will be up and operating at peak efficiency....in the meantime...I would be happy to settle for your beautiful 'lillies'...and that they are....indeed....very pretty Mimi....each and everyone...;o)

And... every photo still has that special charm... and to which only you.... are able to add...grace....I just love the colors...the softness...and the demureness...that so typifies your work of art... Good job..my friend....get well soon....and I am betting high stakes....you will.....

I do hope you're doing well Mimi. So sorry about your accident but like a true "Caedes trooper" you triumph over perils. What a lovely composition this is for us to enjoy until you can get out and share more lovely photos such as this.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority.
