A Friday foofy - a beautiful and quite large pot of hydrangea blooming at the education center of the Chicago Botanic Garden. I love hydrangea in all their various colors. At the florist I recently saw a lovely magenta color mixed with light green immature hydrangeas - didn't have my camera with me! All comments and critiques appreciated.

Go home grab your camera and return to the florist to get a photo of the hydrangea.
Lovely colours in your photo Kathy. I like the slight vignetting of the image. You could maybe include a bit more light on the flowers. Nice work.
