Want a "Quickie" ? Today - hybridized day lilies

Went out this morning to photograph some of the day lilies that have been hybridized here at the Gardens at Waters East.  So many photos – too many for one posting.  Here are a few of the “special” lilies that grow here and no place else on planet Earth.  All are originals in the Gardens at Waters East.
In the future there will be more posted.  Today was a day of an over abundance of blooms from one end of the gardens to the other.  Cloudy and a little rain – perfect for photographing this morning.

Enjoy

In Your FACE #13

In Your Face!!!

Me, me, me.  Look at me.  No, look at me.  Better yet, skip all those and look at me!  Walking through the Gardens at Waters East, one almost hears this constant refrain.  Every plant wants attention.  Every bloom is screaming – “I’m so beautiful just look at me!”  In many cases they are right.  Take a look at some of the beauties basking in the sun and calling to be the center of your attention. Checkout the detail of some of the garden residents.

All of these “portraits” were take here in the gardens.  Self centered though they may be, the flowers do make you stop and stare.  They seem to be doing “their thing” just for you.  So why not indulge them for a few moments while walking the paths.

Here then are photos for this posting
pause a moment - - - really slow down and pause a moment
see the detail
even if you only pick one or two of the photos - pause a moment
Enjoy
