Mother nature isn’t shy.

Retiring.

She paints her creations in exotic hues.

Bold.

Attention getting.

Seductive.

The colors of the rainbow.

She paints them for us all!
Cheers to you from all of nature’s gorgeous creations~ <3

Awwww, so motivating, so encouraging and so very appreciated! Mil grazi~ <3 <3
Wow! Wonderfully sharp details!
My trusty little sony gets the credit, I fear I am wearing it out! Thank you John~
OMG Cindy, these are just so BEAUTIFUL! I can’t find a big enough word (well I could but the list of adjectives is too long 🙂 ) and I simply adore them. You have a wonderful eye for the capture of each…the gorgeous birds (hummers?) and then those orchids!
Would you mind if I printed them – just for me to have in my meditation room? They are so lovely. If you prefer not to I understand. Just let me know how to get them 😊.
Blessings Susan 💖 💖
Of course I want you to have them in your meditation room and I am sincerly honored that you could use them for such a wonderful purpose, plus I appreciate your thoughtfulness in asking me. Let’s try a few things, First try clicking on the photos and downloading them to your desktop. Then see if you can open them and print them. If this doesn’t work I can email you the links to the photos and you can open and print them. If you know a better way, I am completely willing to do it. Makes me very happy to think of you using them for this! <3 <3
Wonderful, it hives me something to look forward to tomorrow. They are simply stunning. I hope one day to see them in the wild.
Cheers to you my friend and have a wonderful weekend!

Wow, brilliant colours, brilliant photos… but then what else do we expect from Cindy…
Laughing, exactly what I expect (and get) from you! <3
As always, beautiful photos
Merci beaucoup!
It is still a bit grey here but fortunately will burn off soon. However your beautiful photos threw a beautiful rainbow out there. Lovely Cindy! xx
You my friend and colleague, deserve all the rainbows I can send!
Merci beaucoup ton amie! You certainly gave my morning a rainbow!
SUPER!
Vielen danke mein Freund!
And there must be gorgeous gentlemen too? 😉
Oh yes, wish I have mentioned painted gentlemen! 😉
You need a dandy in there; like a dandelion. 😉
Such a beautiful reminder on a chilly day that our Spring here in the North will eventually return… Not quite with these spectacular colours though! Eye candy for sure.
Very happy that they brightened your day and wish I could borrow some of your precipitation, although we do have the chill! 😉
Nature is simply the best painter!
She rocks!!

Thank-you Cindy. Likewise 🙂

So glad and hugz to you my friend~
It takes something more than skill to capture the soul of a flower…, and you have done that, Cindy. This set of pics is far beyond beautiful. It’s mystic !!! Big Hug !
Awwwww, you are such a special soul my friend, not only because we’re cousins. We are spirtual cousins. <3
Beautiful colors and collection of photos. Thanks Cindy!
Thank you for taking the time to appreciate them!
My pleasure! 🙂
Beautiful! Cincy, You are getting better and better.
So thoughtful and so appreciated. Did you hear about the Crown? Have you ever had this happen when you were sailing?
Yes, twice! On Star (Latin America) and on either Sea or Ocean (Australia) I think. Luckily, both of us were safe (we both are semi-OCD). 😀 ))) Many staterooms were quarantined, with people going in and out with overalls and masks (as seen on movie ET). 🙁 I know that later Star was parked and disinfected thoroughly. Apparently, not only on the ships but it happens more than we know everywhere. Just that group of people being together for days and days, it becomes a ‘group activity’, for lack of better words for it. :D)))
Yes, we are ocd on ships too. There are additionally two ships disabled now due to propulsion issues and passengers are complaining real x that the Captain/Admin is being unresponsive. This happened to us in Manuas Brazil after cruising up the Amazon, we were stranded for more than 48 hours and the Captain essentially never spoke to the passengers, at one point we were locked in a bus! When stuff goes wrong on a cruise ship, it goes wrong BIG time due to sheer numbers.
Perfectly beautiful! So good in fact I looked twice.
Twice is twice as nice! 😉
Beautiful stunning hues! Nature is a true artist extraordinare! 🙂
I love her and never wish to annoy her! 😉
Spectacular, can’t describe it any other way! 🙂
Awwww, so kind and so appreciated!
Outstanding!
So kind and so appreciated!
Those are astounding photos Cindy. You just keep getting better and better! 🙂
Awwww, so glad. I really am a newbie so that is encouraging!
Gorgeous photos! I bet you’ve seen ‘The Botany of Desire’ documentary. But if not, I think it might be right up your alley!
No I haven’t but I can tell by the title what it’s about and you are right, I’m gonna go download it now! Thanks for telling me……
Mother nature is the best, but you’re probably the next best 🙂 Gorgeous shots!
Awwww, not even on the same planet, but I appreciated the sentiments greatly! <3
Stunning photos! I especially love that multi coloured flower, wowza!
That one’s not too shy is it! I love it too~

Fantabulous images, Cindy. Mother Nature for sure isn’t shy. 🙂
She is not and good for her!! 😉
