So bright, so cheery. I like the gardy Mums. It even looks sorta like a Marigold. Cheery!!

These flowers have the right autumn colours and shades. Lovely!

Gorgeous! So often a flower's own vibrance can overwhelm things, but you've captured it perfectly.

Wow. This is a nice capture. I love these flowers but never have had much luck with them after the first year. I guess it is all in the proper trimming.

My flowers are at Thunder Maker

Beautiful flowers...

Wow! Those are just beautiful! I love the color. They are a nice part of the autumn season. I like autumn, just not that fond of what comes after it... but variety is good, I guess. Anyway, gorgeous photos of gorgeous flowers.

Very beautiful orange flowers and I also enjoyed looking at your kitchen cupboards. Our house is old, over 100 years, and all the cupboards in the pantry have glass doors; I love them. You have some lovely glassware to show!
