Double Delight macro

I have been posting quite a few flower macros lately, but feel compelled to show you this one, taken just a couple of hours ago, showing my Double Delight rose incandescently reaching to the sun on the longest day of the year. Here in cloudy Seattle we appreciate the sun, perhaps more than other places. Happy Solstice and Happy Summer! I really love this image and I am calling it my weekly Top Shot.

Pink honeysuckle macro

I saw this honeysuckle vine growing and blooming in a vacant property, in a lot of shade. I realized that it must be some tough plant, and took two small pieces home, and one rooted. Now this is blooming on the north side of my house. I really appreciate plants that flower in full shade, and it’s fragrant to boot!

Rose in the rain

It rained yesterday and it was gentle enough to just bejewel the roses.

Arboretum pond

The pond at Seattle’s Arboretum, at the end of May. As far as I am concerned, you can’t get much more scenic than this.
