The World of Flowers~
Our world of pain (passion flowers, Florida),
is also our world of beauty.
Consider the flowers (salt water marsh flowers, Patagonia).
Gifts to remind us everyday (freesias, The Azores),
in every corner of the planet (tulips, Ireland),
that although there is pain (tulips, Netherlands),
there is also beauty (water lily, Huahine).
Cheers to you from all the flowers on our beautiful planet (ranunculus California)~
So pretty!
Mil grazi!
Incredible (as always!) Cindy — thank you for sharing these.
Thank you so much more for appreciating them! <3
I am so happy to have caught your blog post before there are 200 comments on it. Cindy, your photos are magnificent and although I don’t often comment I always feel moved by them. đŸ™‚
Awww, so motivating and encouraging to keep on blogging! Thank you my friend and the admiration is most mutual~
Stunning. Hardly know what to say…so beautiful.
This is the most lovely thing to say. Thank you. <3
Passion….the root word of suffering…..something to think about just now. Thanks for the beautiful photos.
Yes indeed. And the Passion Flower is named for the passion (suffering) of Christ. Have I mentioned how clever you are?
Are you in pain now? If you would like a private ear, please email me.
Beautiful work.
Most kind and so appreciated!
đŸ™‚
Thank u for posting..too beautiful for wordsđŸ’‹
Thank you more for such kind appreciation! <3
I could have sworn you tore that first passion flower right out of my blog đŸ˜€ Just kidding.. wonderful pics, Cindy. I love the passion flowers.. and a wild variety grows here too, a pic of which I put up on my blog too in the recent past. Wonderful pics… thank you…
I am going to go look at your blog. I had never seen this color passion flower before, so I was quite transfixed by it!
Yes, I know, spectacular colours and patterns. I also have another pic taken from my garden a few years ago, another striking blood red colour. Will post it sometime soon.
These colors are amazing to me. I just saw the one you posted and it is quite similar. I wonder how many hues they come in……
Reblogged this on and commented:
This post didn’t show up in the reader so I am forced to reblog. Sorry!
Dear Cindy,
Thank you for posting these beautiful flowers. đŸ™‚
<3 <3
Excellent work, and such a joyful palate of color. To me, the center of the second flower is amazing!
Aren’t these passion flowers fascinating. I had never seen them in either of these colors before and I agree about the center of the second one. Glad you enjoyed~
Beautiful!!!
Merci beaucoup mon ami!
Beautiful!
Mil grazi~
Exquisite! Vivid colors around the world. We are indeed blessed. đŸŒ»đŸŒºđŸŒ¹đŸŒ·
I love your flower icons!!! They are in color!!! đŸ˜‰
LOVE Flamingos!!!
Yep. So do I! <3
Stunning! Florida is my favorite. Did you see the little bird hiding in the second photograph?
I think you may mean third. I didn’t see this bird originally and was thrilled when someone with very perceptive eyes (just like you) saw him. He is a plover and is a surreptitous spy. I love it when bloggers find things I didn’t see in my photos. A blogger found a baby nyland hiding amongst the adults, by counting the legs! Incredible! I totally missed it. Thank you for seeing so precisely!
Oh, those wonderful colors!!!
Mother Nature doesn’t do things half way!
Gorgeous blooms one and all. It’s amazing how nature lifts our spirit. By the way, both this post the reblog showed up in my reader. Perhaps a WP glitch earlier in the day.
So sorry you had to see it twice. I hate posting it twice but it didn’t post for me and other people have mentioned not getting it. It probably isn’t consistently missing which just makes it more problematic.
Ah well, a minor thing when one can look at Mother Nature’s handiwork. Cheers to you and thank you~
Cindy, I would be happy to look at your blog three days a week, and on all the holidays and Sundays. I’m sure everyone else feels the same way.
Awwww, smiling! Such a thoughtful thing to say~ <3
Thank you Cindy, these images fill my heart with Light!
Then they were more than worth posting! <3
Yes thank you!!
Just beautiful Cindy.

Cindy, these pictures are so beautiful. What a lovely world we all live in. Hugs! Veraiconica
Hugs and Cheers dear Veraiconica~ <3
Cindy, you just managed to fool my brain into thinking that Spring is coming up! Haha! Mmmm, I love freesias so much that whenever I see a picture of them, I instantly recall the scent of them. All those flowers are such a sight though. Nice to see them growing strong and vibrant in their homelands! đŸ™‚ ~Lynn
Yes, I love freesias too and grow them, so I can put them on my nightstand and fall asleep with freesia scented air. Heavenly! Cheers and have a great week Lynn~ <3

El mundo del flores…es un mundo muy hermoso !! Beautiful. đŸ’•
Si, es verdad! Muchos gracias~
De nada. ☺
Such a gorgeous post that I thought I’d double up on the like and comment! đŸ™‚
How annoying that it didn’t show up in the reader! Well, nothing is perfect.
I really don’t like double posting. It is so intrusive for people who receive email notifications, but I didn’t know what else to do to get it posted in the reader. It happened with the bear post too. A new glitch I guess. Have a wonderful week Resa~ <3
Yuk on glitches! Love on you!
<3 <3
What STUNNING captures Cindy – simply glorious! đŸ™‚
Awwww, so kind! <3
Now that brightened my day big time! Even with life’s ups and downs the beauty of color and flowers always warms the heart.
Thanks Cindy!
Yes! I am very glad I post brightened your day and hope you have a lovely week! <3
El mundo secreto de las flores es maravilloso. Las fotos son preciosas. đŸ™‚
Tu es muy amable y un amiga maravilloso. Tiene un buen semana~ <3
Wow! They’re beautiful! Wolfie is feeling quite heady lol having woken up and smelled the ‘roses! ‘
Gorgeous photos of some unusual flowers. The variety of the natural world is utterly awesome.

Mil grazi! <3
Really beautiful. Can I please have all these flowers in my garden?
If I was a fairy I would put them there right now!
I love this colorful post Cindy đŸ˜€
That makes my day! <3
Happy to hear that Cindy đŸ˜€
I saw these when the post came out but didn’t comment. The intricacies of nature are so beautiful and amazing.
The intricacies, color and artistry, are amazing indeed! Thank you my friend~ <3
Years ago hubby followed a black bear in the Poconos to capture his picture…I thought he was crazy…now I know better.
The bear saw into your husband’s heart and visa versa! <3 Tell him I respect him for it.
I think so….
don’t ask me how my bear comments made it onto this post….I need sleep!
hehehe!! Love it!
Cindy – have moved to a new house and am deep in the midst of writing my second novel, so I haven’t been able to enjoy your photos like in the past. Just took a break to scroll through – so great. Love the red flower here – gives a much needed jolt!
Both things are very exciting, your new house and your new novel. So happy you are staying in touch and look forward to hearing and seeing how both your new projects are going! <3
