    Another visit to my parents' and a few more pictures. These are all taken by my dad, again, and the theme of these pictures, except for the dancing frogs at the end is flowers. My favorite is the poppy.

    feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
    porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
    but weighty and unmovable
    As black Dakota hills.

    The poppy is a gorgeous. How do you grow poppys from seeds or do they just grow?

    Woot, I am indeed honoured!! Yes, of course you can!

    Niamh and Nightshade -- it is truly amazing that you both have such beautiful photos taken from a mobile! I have just renewed my cell phone contract, and the new cell phone has a camera -- I can only hope that I could get such quality -- time will tell, right?

    Idril, your photos are spectacular, I cannot even begin to choose a favorite, thanks for posting them!

    My mom planted the seeds a few years ago but they seed themselves now so they come back every year.

    I can't take any credit for the pictures I posted, they were taken by my dad but I took this one all by my lonesome tonight and I'm quite proud of it.

    Idril, I love your flowers so much. I copied the poppy to send to a gardening friend, hope you don't mind - that one was wonderful. They are all lovely though; I love closeups like these in floral photos.
    Ok, this is a bit of a cheat, since my good friend grew these and took the photos, as well. She is so talented I had to post them for her. Her name is Jeanne. I think these are spectacular photos of passion flowers. Is the red unusual or what?

    Idril, I forgot to mention those frogs - they are adorable. Where can I get some?

    Thanks Niamh, glad you see you here. I forgot to congratulate you on becoming a mod - good for you!
    I loved that poppy photo, too. My friend loves red flowers - she will go ape when she sees that photo.

    Beautiful pictures, Janine, idril and everyone. Especially these of flowers helped to lighten up my mood.
    I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.
