I'm late getting my Friday foofy posted as it is Christmas decorating day around my house. This is just a pretty color of violet - almost glowed. All comments and critiques appreciated.
Violets, and especially this violet one, are such pretty blooms. I love the closeness of this shot and know that in my hands it would not fare well. lol
It is apparent that you snuck into my house last night and snapped a few shots of my African violets. As usual my dogs slept right through it.
Hope you enjoyed your Christmas decorating day. You haven't lived until you've done Christmas in Orange County, California. My first Christmas in California was pretty rough. Not only was there no snow, but we cut down our tree wearing shorts and t-shirts. I felt like I was on another planet listening to carols and sweating bullets from the heat and the Santa Ana winds.
Beautiful colors, fine detail and the best borders on Caedes.
Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
Explain to me please how I missed yet another Christmas Decorating Day? Is it one of those holidays that moves around the calendar seemingly on a whim? A good closeup of the violets. Nice focus work and lovely colours.
