I have got myself into a downward spiral of not publishing my photos. They might not seem 'good enough' or it might be that I don't want to show one more floral image, or I might be too tired (most frequent) or it might be too late. Whatever the reason, I knew I had to break the cycle and just upload and share. This peony, one of my favourite flowers, was resting on the path, so splendid in its unfurling pinkness, so sweet in its wonderful perfume, it too easily might have been trodden underfoot. It's just as lovely as those standing proud above it. So (for my friend Joyce) here it is. 😀

Such a rich, beautiful flower
One of my favorite flowers +Ellie Kennard 🙂
So pretty! I do love these flowers!
That's good if you post because you love to do it and not because you think people expect. The same with the content! If you love to post 7 days a week the same flower you love, then do it if it makes you happy and do not waive to do because you think people don't get happy with!
I love peonys and since for some unknown reason they have become increasingly puny in my garden and don't bloom for many years, I am glad you posted it!!
+Sunny Wu – thank you so much, Sunny!
I'm glad you like it, +Gisela Heeg
+Patt Dickson – the trick is not to let it get us down. Thank you for your kind comment.
+Shelly Gunderson – it's nice to know I'm not alone, and even better to know that others overcome it so well. I hope that the scent you almost got made you feel good. 🙂
Thanks a lot +Birgit Backlund-Palander
+Giles Crouch – that was a lovely thing to say. I really appreciate your comment. Thanks.
Thank you Joyce!
+Jean-Louis LAURENCE and +Belles photos merci beaucoup, aussi pour le 'reshare' 😀
I'm glad you dropped by +Tammy Ligocki and that you liked it. Thanks.
Isn't it astonishing, +Lynn David Newton – they have always been among my favourite flowers and they range from much simpler to these wonderful deep full ones.
Thank you +Sumit Sen
Thanks +작은발 littlefoot
Stunning colour
thanks ☆
Very pretty!
The inner complexity of that thing is enormous. Layer upon layer upon layer. I've heard of peonies but have never looked at one to know what it was I was looking at.
Beautiful writing! I'm glad Yuri shared 🙂
Cette photo est belle !

Thank you Ellie it is very beautiful, one of my favorites too, and your photos are always good enough.
Nice! Keep 'em coming…everyone is each inspired in different ways from different photo's. That means you get to inspire different people in many different ways…what a wonderful gift you have. Thanks.
Looks very beautiful! Glad you posted it!
I totally understand too. This is quite lovely and I can almost smell it through the computer.
I understand and empathize Ellie.. I feel pretty much exactly the same…
So glad that you have shared with us, and granted immortality to this delicate and otherwise short-lived beauty.
Wonderful flower, colors and photo.. +Ellie Kennard
AWESOME FLOWER PHOTO!
