This week’s theme was a no-brainer for me as I love taking close-up pics. So, I’ve compiled some of my favorites in a lil slide show for you all to enjoy. I hope you do!! Click here to view more entries for this week. Perhaps next week I’ll have time to figure out how to add Jake’s lovely logo.

lovely flowers :)
thanks!!
Pretty.
thanks! I love my flowers :)
Beautiful Toby. I’m trying to summon some words of wisdom to help you with the logo. (if I can do it, anyone can) You start on the Widgets page, pull an Image box over to the sidebar and put the link in there. WordPress Help under Widgets explains it much better.
thank you. ah…figured it might be something with widgets. I’ll figure it out eventually.
Lovely shots, Toby. I especially love the Bleeding Hearts. Haven´t seen them since I moved to Spain.
thanks Marianne. I especially like the white bleeding hearts as they’re not as popular. no bleeding hearts in Spain?!?!?!! oh dear…
Well, there may be, but I haven´t seen any. :)
yea, I was thinking that you’re in southern Spain. If they do exist in Spain I bet it would be in the northern climes. I had never heard of them before moving to Minnesota and we moved from southern California, so….interesting :)
Hmmm they could be in northern Spain. The climate is much different there. I hope they are! :)
This is garden heaven!
garden heaven, I love it!! thank you for your nice comment.
Beautiful slide show my friend , I love your work for this week theme ,

thanks Jake! glad you enjoyed it.

thank you!!
Are those all from your garden? They’re so gorgeous!
(P.S. are you having better luck with slideshows this time around? I hope so!)
yep, they’re all from my garden. thanks! I didn’t bother with trying to put the pics in order but I was happy when the two bleeding hearts were right after each other. totally unplanned! me gusta la perspectiva ;)
oh wait! all but one are from my garden. the bougainvillea is from Sevilla :)
