Sunday Selections #801


Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files. Huge thanks to Cie who gave me this wonderful Sunday Selections image. 

The meme was then continued by River at Drifting through life.  Sadly she has now stepped aside (though she will join us some weeks), and I have accepted the mantle. 
 
The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent.  Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to me. Sorry I still haven't succeeded in working out how to do a blog hop. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen. 
 

I usually run with a theme. This week my theme is  pink and red.

 In the garden - which in the absence of promised rain is crispifying fast.

 









This looks like all the other orchid/Christmas cacti - except it has hot pink stamens.


The 365 day blooming begonia
 

 This mauve pelargonium is the exception to my pink/red theme.  It has rose scented leaves and gives off its oil if you brush against it.

And in the skies.

 I know that some of these are blurry and should probably not be shared but the colour was astonishing.






 

We have a house guest who arrived late on Friday night so I am likely not to be at this toy after the very early morning until the late afternoon today.  My apologies.

I hope your day is wonderful.

    The ball flowers look like popcorn balls.

  5. Lots of pink and red including the dawn skies. A total lift me up on a rather dismal day here.
