These are both lovely, Rodney. Being laid off comes as an awful shock, even when you saw it coming & thought you were prepared--so I offer you my sympathy but even more than that my encouragement. The first time I was laid off I learned to do the crossword puzzles in the newspaper--I still do them to this day. Sometimes the silver lining is a little one, but it's always there. Head up, tail up -- & please get some more of these lovely flower shots for us.

it looks encrusted with diamonds, beautiful with those lightly colored petals--I spy a little ant, too!

bright cheery gold is eye-catching, & the DOF makes me smile, it's as if I can see them sway in the wind

Wow. Sweet. The sunlight on the wall adds an extra special touch. I've always thought maybe the Street is as big a part of street photography as the people, like in this shot.

Love those snowy white petals & that voluptuous unrestrained beauty. Looks like maybe you were perched up high somewhere to get this shot.
