This pretty peony was playing in the light and shadows when I visited the Chicago Botanic Garden - it was on the interior of the bush and I wanted to capture how lovely it was.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Lovely colors - I did not know peonies could be three different colors in one bloom. Very pretty Kathy.

Kathy, I've a rather similar toned peony in my garden as well. Will post it next Friday. I can already say in advance that it will not be as nice as yours, but good enough to be posted.

I love the multiple colors in this peony Kathy - great comp, lighting and shadows - only problem, they don't stay around long enough - a real beauty and a great capture!!!

Can we expect an "I Got Your Nose Rhododendron" next? Or is that asking for too much? A nice close up on the peony, Kathy. Lovely colours and lighting in the photo.
