"To me, photography is an art of observation. Itβs about finding something interesting in an ordinary place. . . Iβve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them." β Elliott Erwin (Documentary photographer)

stunning!
Thank you so much, Cindy. BTW, taking a poll, are my comments going to your spam folder? I’ve been getting feedback about that. π¦
FABOO! If there’s a Heaven, those are the colors it should be painted in 8^)
Thanks so much, Frank! Hope all is well with you. π
Where’s that LOVE button!! I really enjoy the color combinations and textures that you have in your garden and arrangement Eliza π
Thanks, Val, its a pleasure to share my gardens that generally, we have only to ourselves. Seems only right to share! β€
I certainly appreciate it π
I am very grateful that you do. β€ π
Beautiful Eliza.
Thank you, Karen, much appreciated!
OH! SOOO LOVELY!
Thank you so much, Catherine!
Is this your garden, Eliza? If it is, no wonder your “Vases on Monday” are always so appealing. π
Yes, it is and thank you for your kind compliment, Joanne! π
So very beautiful.
Thank you, Gigi. It was taken right after dawn and everything was so still and beautiful out there in the garden. Heavenly! π
Blue is such a lovely color in the garden. This pops right off the page. Great shot. π
Thank you, Judy!
Takes my breath away!
Thank you so much, Nicci!
Oooh LOVE! I had some of that beautiful globe thistle in my garden but it didn’t compete with all the thugs. I wonder if I could find a less competitive spot? So so blue and brilliant!
Thanks, Kathy. It is a great plant and the bees love it, too. I almost lost it 2 winters ago to voles, but it managed to come back nicely. It used to be huge. Another year or two and it will be again, I hope!
Love the blend of color
Thank you!
The purest blue in a wild array of color. Lovely.
Thank you, Dor! π
These bluish ones are new to me.
Globe thistle, Echinops ritro, Asteraceae. Prickly, but beautiful! Native to northern Mediterranean region and east.
It’s gorgeous! Thanks.
Absolutely beautiful photo Eliza. Stunning.
Thanks so much, Sylvia!
Now that’s a beautiful blue … perfect for a rainy day in Cincinnati.
Thank you!
Oh gosh! So lovely!
Thank you, Fi!
