Working Through Them


Today's Philly Flower Show photos are brought to you by the color families of oranges (and reds)...


And blues...


This display was suspended from...above.  And quite large.  (I cropped to cut the photo bombers.) Maybe 12'x12'? Maybe it was larger.  Also, it was multi-leveled.  See how it climbs to the back.

This is what the individual units of the display were like, of various blooms and colors.

This handsome fellow (in the African savannah exhibit) was made of rebar and these...


In other news...I have not been knitting in New Jersey!  Well, actually, I was.  In-transit knitting, and only on socks, which stayed on the needles.  None of my knitting is adorning public places, no matter what my family accuses DSis and myself of!

Your flower photos are just beautiful -- it's amazing how they put those tiny vials of water on each stalk.

I'm also amazed at your gorgeous spinning wheel -- I had no idea they looked like that. The image in my head has always been the classic Sleeping Beauty spinning wheel -- Obviously I am really behind the times.

My favorite is the last photo (and the giraffe). What are those, some kind of lily? Gorgeous! How inventive. I think next year I am definitely going to get on the bus and go! It really looks like something else.

It wasn't me knitting in New Jersey either! ;)

We did not really accuse, but rather, questioned! And it is interesting that my son picked up on it!

Wonderful! It was such a dreary, rainy weekend here. Your photos were a welcome sight.

I agree. These photos are such a welcome sight! So beautiful and WARM!

We helped prepare the community garden for planting last weekend, and now it's going to be white again this weekend. !!!

  • Welcome...

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
