Isn’t it astonishing how fragile these delicate flowers appear to be, yet so resilient in the face of torrential rain and gale force winds, scorching sun and shivering temperatures? Lovely photos 😊
Thank you for your thoughtful, lovely comments, Chris. My first two years here, I never got to see the columbines blossom. Deer ate them, trampled my raised-bed gardens, and pulled up my baby tomato plants. (Here’a a very old post that tells the story if you’re interested: https://carolahand.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/inch-by-inch-row-by-row/.)
Such miracles abound around us only if we are sensitive enough to notice them. Your words are in complete consonance with the pictures. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Thank you so much for your thoughtful, lovely comments, Annette. I agree with you. Flowers are amazing. ❤
(The last picture was an experiment and an unexpected gift. I needed to hold the camera lens facing upward under the flower, hoping it was properly focused. I was delighted when I saw the image later.)
