Kathy, the many species of the Dianthus flowers have two nicknames in my country: duizendschoon en boerenpronkers. De first nickname (thousand beauties) speaks for itself, while the latter (pomp of the farmers) is given because most of the farm yards in my country have these flowers. A wonderful sight. Your fine image proofs that these nicknames are well chosen.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
