Default Your Best Flower Shots

I did a search and nothing turned up in the first few pages so I thought I would start a thread where everyone can post up their "Best Flower Shots"

Here is a few I have taken over the last year or two.

Reviving an old thread...

Here are a few that I have taken. I normally use pictures of flowers as PowerPoint backgrounds for miscellaneous announcements and "welcome to our church" slides for the projection system at our church.




Click on this one (below), and there is an example of how I used this one as an announcement in a comment.
