    It is indeed a thing a beauty. Such a nice color also on the poppy with the accent of rain drops.

    I love close ups of flower petals. Poppies are a very regal flower, I find.

    Lovely quote too, Cherie. :)

  7. CalumCarr says:

    Both parts beautiful. Thank you, CP.

    I love your photos of the Wenlock Priory too!

    I couldn’t have said it or shown it better!

    It is truly lovely in its own right but I must risk being torn to pieces for the observation there is something sensationally feminine about this pic.

    This gorgeous (but I had to think about the quote!)

    And the rose below is very unusual and lovely in its colour.

    I was looking at your photo again. It really is absolutely delicious. It would make an ideal greeting card.

      I hoped the quote would make people think :-)

      The rose is the one I bought in the memory of my Dad on what would have been his birthday which is why a smiled when it had an unexpected late flourish of blooms.

      If you want to use the piccie for a card, feel free xx

    I wish I could write like you as Margaret Laurence once said “When I say “work” I only mean writing. Everything else is just odd jobs.”
