FALL FLOWER FINALE

,

 

 Here are the last of the flowers from our visit to Shore Acres Gardens.

And below for I HEART MACRO, thanks to Laura.

This one is a bit of a cheat for a macro shot, because obviously it is a crop of the picture above it… but I didn't notice the perfect center of this flower until I looked at the download.   I think it looks  like a picture made by a spin of a kaleidoscope.

The late September rains pretty much did in the flowers around here, so this will probably be my last flower post  until we head south and I can add to my collection.  

Thanks again to both hosts and to everyone for coming to see my "stolen" summer blossoms.  

     

 

 

We appreciate all visitors and commenters! Thank you.
