Too CLOSE for COMFORT they shouted!!!!!!

gorgeous close ups :-)
many of them would look great as screen savers :-)

beautiful photos :)

They are ALL beautiful Doon...couldn't pick a favourite. Thank goodness for flowers eh? Our world would be so dull without them. Gorgeous pics...thank you.

Lovely shots Doon...I too like taking close ups of blooms..

Gorgeous pics, would all make lovely framed pictures :-)

Great photos of all your lovely flowers

Amazingly clear and beautiful flowers. Thank you for sharing.

Lovely photos what a lot of stunning flowers you have I like the last one best

I would frame them all they are wonderful, especially the old fashioned gladioli and the first sun flower, you could make a business out of them selling them as framed pictures.

lovely shots Doon, lots of colour yet in your garden isnt it getting cold where you are now. i like the one you are going to frame, very pretty

Brill photos.

Thank you alll 4 the lovely comments, yes I must say I was very pleased. I am surprized at the Gladiola ? (spelling?) took the best "liked" prize, but she was a beaut. Also such a great cut flower.
It finally has rained here Sanbaz after the longest, hottest Summer ever. I am so happy and now I can start re arranging my garden.
Yes Fluff, TG 4 our lovely gardens!!!!!!!!

Splendid doon you are right to be pleased

Thanks drc726

Beautiful! Thanks for taking the time to share

Such beautiful photos of beautiful flowers, Doon. Nice to hear that you've still got some to admire, as well! :-))

Lovely closeups. Youe flowers are lasting well.

They are really fabulous closeups, Doon! :-) How do you manage to get such clear photos? When I used to use my digicam for taking closeups, even on the macro setting, they never looked clear, for taking closeups :-(

I now use my mobile phone camera for most of my photos. I find it takes much better photos than my camera, + I don't have to remember to buy batteries for it or to pick it up when I go out!

Thank you Healerwitch & Spritz, They have been destroyed in this last deluge we had, but very welcome. Some of the shots were taken through out the year & not just recently.

Balcony my camera is just a digital Olympus C750 ultra Zoom. 4 mega pixels, so really quite an old one at least 4 yrs. But it does take nice shots for sure. Thanks for the compliment.

Loved this blog, such beautiful flowers do you know the name of the flame coloured flower you are going to frame? I wouldn't mind that in my garden:-) I also particularly liked the first sunflowe, stunning pic. Glad you've got the rain:-)

Hi sorry 4 taking so long but been away on hols, and just back. Yes the dahlia is called "Bedhead" & that sun flower was stunning this Summer. it bloomed & bloomed, I kept cutting & cutting. A joy it was.
