After the Rain-135/365

Posted by Ellie

These are my absolute favourite tulips that we have in the garden. There are just two flowers that appear, each year. And they seem to last for weeks before dying off. I was photographing these at the time of the raccoon saga and just yesterday after a sudden downpour I happened to see that they are still there, but soon will be over.  So here they are, early for #tulipsaturday  curated by +Measie Elizabeth, +Marilyn Benham +Eustace James

Over So Soon-127/365

Posted by Ellie

I love to see the dandelions that appear in the spring. Two days ago I was photographing the yellow carpet spread out under the trees. Too soon they were over this year, it seems. But the delicate seeds are here, to be spread in the wind. The middle looks like a golf ball, which I had never noticed before. This image is best viewed large and zoomed in to see the detail.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!

For Lee Daniels

Posted by Ellie

Today there is a special theme as we have lost a lovely lady this week, our friend on G+ and a beautiful photographer +Lee Daniels who lost her battle with cancer. So as Lee specially loved flowers (and cats, so that further endeared her to me) this Christmas Cactus flower is for  #FleurdeLee and   #RememberingLeeDaniels .
