The Garden: Up Close and Personal

Some days in the garden are days when I want to look at little details. Okay, maybe not just some days... most days, I do that. I am fascinated by the small things that are so beautiful because of their diminutive perfection.

So today's post is a photo post showing some of the small things I and my camera discovered in the garden...

A honeybee covered with pollen from the zucchini blossoms...



A star-shaped "Kinnow" mandarin blossom and a tiny round strawberry ready to be picked...



A hawk's feather fluttering in the breeze on the edge of a flagstone. Wonder if he misses it...



The texture and vibrance of a zucchini blossom...



And the "tongue" of a canna lily (it doesn't mean to be rude)...

  1. Such marvelous photography, Cindy! I've been behind again in my reading so I'm playing catchup tonight a bit. I too love photos that others might not go looking for.

  2. Great photos Cindy! I love all the little details you discovered that we all take for granted in the garden sometimes.

  5. Beautiful pics Cindy- having a camera has certainly made me start to look at the little details and even composition of shelves etc. so I see things differently and pay attention.

    I do like bees. :-)

  9. Cindy, you photos are beautiful, why do mine never turn out so clear and full of light and colour? You really have an eye for a good shot though and that can't be learned.

    You make me miss having a garden ... hopefully I will this time next year.
