My Favorite Flowers today
I found these in my garden and would like to share them with you. What I really love about them is the color, the scent and the shapes. I have strong memories from my childhood’s garden of these lovely Sweet Peas in Danish we call them by the Latin name Latyrus.

I am training on photography with our Nikon DX camera. Most photos in my blog here I have taken with my iPhone camera.
Among the roses are Lavender which I use in salads and bread baking in a dried form.

I love the flowers in my garden as well. But I like to put “people” into my flower photos. Do you ever do that?

oh yes @mariannescottwriter I love to take photos of people in lovely backgrounds among flowers. Now I was just trying to be better in focusing on the details of the flowers

I know what you mean. I’m going outside right now and take some close up shots of my dahlias which are quite magnificent this year. My sister who lives on Cortes Island British Columbia grows them too but I think I’ve outdone her this year. hahahahahaa….

I am looking forward to see them on your blog ? The name Dahlia sounds very seducing remembering the story of Samson and Dahlia in the Old Testament

My mother had a huge tangled sweet pea bush that I loved..I think even as a child I preferred the flowers that had no scent, and perhaps this is one of the reasons I liked sweet peas. I didn’t realize until I was older that the reason I hated the scent of flowers was because I was so allergic to them. The pink rose is outlandish. It looks like a ranunculous (probably misspelled.) I love how densely packed it is, and a beautiful color. http://judydykstrabrown.com/2015/08/11/charm-school-for-cinderella/
