All you see are leaves - until you look closer. And then you start noticing all the little purple jewels popping out all over!

Blue hydrangeas evoke fond memories of my paternal grandmother. She had several of the bushes by her little white house with the red shutters.

All gorgeous. Your pictures of morning glories have made me pay more attention to the similar way the buds form and open on my hibiscus and Datura. Thanks.

I usually photograph the face of open blossoms and the sides of buds.

Changing my point of view is useful in photography as well as everyday living.
