According to all the medical people it is now safe for me to leave the house so today my husband drove me to my favorite garden center for some photos. They were deserted with maybe 4 customers in total. The huge outdoor glass greenhouse was full of beautiful flowers with no buyers. After I finished taking pictures I bought a large planter of mixed color snapdragons and stopped by a church parking lot for a shot of these daffies in full bloom. I will continue wearing a mask and gloves but I still wanted to support these small businesses so they are still there when this is finally over.

Good shot Kathy and I'm glad you could venture out.
Let's hope the small businesses that actually need the help, get it.
I read today where Harvard, the richest university in the USA, that has a 40 Billion Endowment, is going to receive 8.6 million of the taxpayers dollars in the Covid 19 Relief Package. Go figure.

EDIT: I see you have entered this in the contest. It is a wonderful entry and good luck.

The lighting really is terrific for this outstanding capture. I'm so happy to hear that you have the clearance, I bet it felt good to get out. I'm thinking of taking a drive to my favorite garden, one day soon. I will be sure to social distance. I have to keep a check on the weather. tigs=^..^=

Very noble intentions, Kathy. Think however that the pandemic still will last for a long time, so patience is required.
Hope however that I'm wrong, so that we can resume our usual life soon.
Thanks for this very uplifting image!

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
