This was the first flower to bloom this year. Last year Kitty planted this gerber daisie in the front yard flower bed. It seems one of the feral cats used it as a pillow for his afternoon nap. There wasn't much left of it when it got transplanted into the back yard. Last week I gor this shot of it blooming. The next day we had a very bad storm and a large tree limb fell on it. I guss i'll go back to shooting wildflowers in the swamp...

So your daisy is pushing up daisies. What a star crossed existence this Baby Gerber has had thus far Huck. She is definitely a beauty when she is around.
Excellent clarity.

That Gerbera is sheer perfection, Ed. as is your shot. Maybe the cat and the tree were jealous of its beauty! lol Glad you got this shot before the tree limb came down.

This is such well captured take of this beautiful bloom, it does sound like it is unlucky. Sure is a beautiful though.

If you've never been thrilled to the very edges of your soul by a flower in spring bloom, maybe your soul has never been in bloom. ~Terri Guillemets

Very nice shot:)

At least you managed to get an excellent shot of this lovely Gerbera before it met its fate Ed. The colour is fantastic and the details so very sharp.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
