As are these other fallen angels who desperately want to find their way back to whatever passes for normal on each of their blogs. Please hop on over and give them a pep talk. It really is almost over. I'm just not sure when.

| The only crowd I enjoy. |
That's a gorgeous photo. That's a crowd I can put up with.
ReplyDeleteThat's simply beautiful! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, Cheryl, the colors are amazing, and the little drops of water on the flowers.. Brilliant. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteAt heart, you are a nature photographer...again, amazing.
ReplyDeleteyou run with a beautiful crowd....smiles.
ReplyDeletevery clever. and i agree. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this - for many reasons
ReplyDelete1. The colors - brilliant
2. The framing and the water droplets
3. The flowers - I adore bleeding hearts and wish I could have them again in our yard - not enough shade at this house...
"I wonder what this holds" — LOL.
ReplyDeleteToday's photo is gorgeous. A crowd of bleeding hearts. I love it.
And you'll be done soon.
K
my jaw hit the floor the instant I saw this picture. ABSOLUTELY my FAVORITE of the day! WOWZAH!
ReplyDeleteNow, that's my idea of a GREAT crowd!
ReplyDeleteStunning shot.
=)
This is a really stunning photo! The colors are amazing!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous, and perfectly framable, the detail is crazily sharp. If I had a room that was able to cope with the pink, I'd get it canvassed.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful shot, and vibrant color!
ReplyDeleteMo, I don't think anyone owns a house with a room that can cope with the pink except Malibu Barbie.
ReplyDeleteThanks buddy. I can put up with pretty much anything that's crowded with flowers.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ziva. We finally got rain and rain and rain. This is always the best part. ;-)
ReplyDeleteAs this thing lingers on, we're all starting to resemble dufus. As punny as that is, truer words were never written.
ReplyDeleteYes I do. You included.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I really do freak out in crowds.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kay. We will be done soon and I know there's going to be a bit of a let-down when we are. Until then, I'll keep raging against the month of April.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. I wish you could too. There's something about seeing them bloom that quickens my step since I know we've hit late April and warmer weather is just around two or three corners. ;-)
ReplyDeleteSince I have panic attacks in crowds, my choices were pretty limited. I can handle it outside but the weather turned cold again so there aren't many crowds outside. Even the birds are all spread out as they nest.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda. You should see them in person. This plant has sent roots out and they've come up as new plants. I've got a crowd of them blooming all over each other. It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThank you. They are brilliant flowers, especially when they're wet from much-needed rain.
ReplyDeleteThanks Meleah. I wish you could see all of them right now. They're all clustered together in full bloom. It's like a little Barbie Villa in the corner of the garden.
ReplyDeleteStunning!
ReplyDeleteLike beauty, "crowd" is in the eye of the beholder. WOW! Incredible shot, Cheryl.
ReplyDeleteThank you Liza.
ReplyDeleteThanks 00. I have panic attacks in crowds so this was a self-limiting prompt. Also a great way to slide a shot of my bleeding hearts in while they're blooming.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE bleeding hearts , & you captured these so well! Lovely droplets.
ReplyDeleteThank you Melanie. Aren't they just the best early bloomers?
ReplyDeleteCheryl, your photos have been astounding! this photo is just gorgeous, and the shot of the moon and the gull ... stunning ... geez, i just keep looking at these wonderous images, and they keep me sane. Keep at it!!!
ReplyDeleteLove this picture, the flowers are beatiful just like you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Love how vivid this turned out.
ReplyDeleteOoooh I like your 'crowd!'
ReplyDeleteI can't seem to get my photos this sharp, which means I'm probably going blind. It's truly beautiful, Cheryl, and wonderfully composed. The water drops really set if off, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo. I'm glad they're keeping you sane. As for me, I've just about gone 'round the bend.
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Sue. As are you.
ReplyDeleteI wish you could all of them. It's a pink jungle out there!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dawn. This one I can handle. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOr the birds have been pecking at your eyes again.
ReplyDeleteDo you ever use the sharpening tool in your photo editing software? Sometimes a nudge helps.
sooo beautiful! love those rich, vivid colours!
ReplyDeletehappy wednesday!
This is a lovely shot of bleeding hearts. I've been wandering around the yard looking for a good place to put some of these. Definitely the "in-crowd." ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous colours and I love the wetness of the rain drops! Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIs it my imagination or are you photos getting even better and better?
I love nature photos. When I took a photography class, plants were my favorite thing to photograph. These are such a beautiful color and asymmetry.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors and the clarity of this shot! :-)
ReplyDeleteWell, there you go again...kicking ass! What a photo!
ReplyDeleteThank you Betty.
ReplyDeleteThey are just too gorgeous not to have around, aren't the?
ReplyDeleteThanks H. We finally got the much-needed rain we usually get in April.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if they're getting better so much as they be more interesting? I'm using the month to practice some of the rules of composition so my crops are different. With these prompts, most of the shots are static. When I'm photographing the things I like best, there tends to be some kind of motion to take into consideration.
Thanks Nora. I am patiently awaiting your Erma Bombeck submission. For me, this is one of the best times of the year to read all you funny funny women.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tanya.
ReplyDeleteAh, thanks Malisa. Thankfully this particular "subject" blooms in April so it's a no-brainer for me. I would have used it somewhere, regardless of the prompt. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture you show - Lieutenant heart is an incredibly beautiful flower.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a good evening.
Hanne Bente / hbt.finus.dk
totally beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFire Tree
I agree whole-heartedly! Nice crowd scene!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful photo, Cheryl! I really like this bleeding heart flower, it's very unusual.

ReplyDeleteBleeding hearts ....Lamprocapnos spectabilis (formerly Dicentra spectabilis)I have pink and white bleeding hearts blooming in my garden very soon:)
Stunning picture. I love bleeding heart!
ReplyDeleteThanks Becky. They're are so beautiful, it's impossible to take a bad photo.
ReplyDeleteThank you Hanne. I've never heard them referred as Lieutenant heart before. I like it.
ReplyDeleteThank you Luna.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nick. They make April sparkle.
ReplyDeleteI hope they're gorgeous this year.
ReplyDeleteThank you. They make the gray rainy days of April worth it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful flower photo!
ReplyDeleteThank you Birgitta.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shot of the bleeding hearts! Love the detail of the raindrops. Definitely a crowd I could stand to be around. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks.
