A random shot I took the other day during a brief stroll through the Botanical Gardens. It rained all day today preventing me from big adventures with my camera. It was a great day for some spring cleaning. Did I say SPRING? According to the calendar spring begins on March 20th. Are we ready for it?
Nice colors for this floral composition. I like a lot.

Sure looks like spring! The colors are awesome, like the contrast. They almost look like little butterflies :)

@Ina: Thank you Ina. They do have the look of tiny butterflies. Everyone is anxious for spring. Although I enjoy the cooler weather. Florida becomes too hot and humid.
Oh What beauty, exceptional, oh I'm ready for Spring, but it's not ready for me, alas...;) sorry I haven't been visiting, i can blame it on frozen fingers and lingering crappy mood lol

@Lorraine: Thanks Lorraine. Not necessary to apologize. Stay warm spring will arrive before you know it. Colorful objects can be a mood lifter.
