Ah...one of my favourite flowers, Mary. Love the light in this one. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: Mine too, Roz, estecially these little ones.
Beautifully lit and with the background nicely out of focus. Lovely picture

Is it time for poppies already, Mary??? I remember when we saw a lot of them here on SC last year. You have the honors for starting us off again, I see. I like your perspective on this one!
Mary MacADNski: I'm still robbing from my files. We are to have a freezing rain storm today. That might give me some fodder.

Since you are still recovering this will be from last year - methinks.

Great picture and DOF
Mary MacADNski: Heck yes, we still have snow on the ground and are in the midst of a freezing rain storm.

Beautiful poppy, Mary! I tried growing these from seed but had no luck. Thanks for posting a picture of them for me!
Mary MacADNski: I was able to grow them from seed at work but not at home. Go figure.... They're Shirley poppies - small and many colours.
