Friday Flower Pick : Miraculously Pink

Pink Flower - Nature Photography by Mademoiselle Mermaid


On National Pink Day, I learned that pink is indeed the most common color for flowers...
...But in my humble opinion, there's nothing common about it=)

Particularly a shocking pink specimen, soaking up the early morning sunshine while drip-drying after her morning shower. 
...Just another extraordinary, ordinary little miracle!!

Speaking of miracles, how about this fascinating creature?! 
...(To the best of my research, it's destiny is to transform into a humming bird moth!!)

Friday Flower Pick : Macro Orchids




Since today's Friday Flower Pick falls on National Pink Day, I'm appropriately taking a very close up look at one my favorite colors!! 

I recently welcomed this delightfully hot pink orchid plant into my apartment garden, and its tiny blooms are just the thing to try out my new macro extension tubes on. A refreshing spritz of water, and the lovely, late morning sunshine pouring in through my window...and we're ready to glow=)!!


HappyFriday!!

Here's a little known fact about me : my favorite word in the world is lavandula. 
(Well, it's actually pretty much tied for first with calendula)...

But it seems that a lovely, soft shade of lavender is the beach cover up color of the day!! Perfect for a quiet, early morning in the sand, contemplating the virtues of a June gloom (and how it really is the nicest weather to shoot in!!)...while watching a dozen dolphins splash by. They don't mind the gloom, and neither do I!!

I think the next new item up will be a striking little red number...and I'm betting it will look just right against the grey skies!!

Today's Friday Flower Pick isn't so much a specimen, as it is a specific special place!!
...Certainly, it's a place blessed with an abundance of all sorts of summer blooms...from hot pink roses, to deliciously fragrant magnolias, to multi-colored hydrangeas...and it would be hard to pick just one.

So I pick them all=)

Not literally of course...just in my mind's and camera's eye, I soak them in, bathed in the surreal light of a California summer glow.

Hello, from Palisades Street!!


HappyFriday!!
