[ROman]

Thanks mikebarhoot. Lilly looks good as well.

[Madame Buttonfly]

Beautiful roses @ROman, and a wonderful variety - @twin the water lily is clearly loving its new home!  We've so many peonies and roses in bloom at the moment, I'm looking forward to the weekend - my sister is visiting and I should be able to put some lovely vases of garden flowers around the house and in her room.  Yes, getting excited about stuff like this is a clear sign I'm definitely getting old!

What a wonderful garden @rocket - where were you?

Beautiful, @rocket!

Not that I am complaining at all, because anyone who knows me, will know that I love flowers and gardening and spend far too much of my disposable income on the garden.  But this thread really is just an excuse for grown men to pretend that the only reason they are taking photos of pretty flowers is to cheer Paula up

@Madame Buttonfly was in the botanical garden "Palmengarten" in Frankfurt on the weekend. 

it's a very nice park @steelworker

You say that like it's a bad thing?

[Giles]

No, it is an amusing thing….

Real men like flowers

Flowers are one of my photographic kryptonites,not that easy to photograph. Even with a Macro lens.
