My favorite flower
Gerbera daisies have always been my favorite flower. I love their vibrant colors and today, I had the opportunity to buy them from a gardening center, where they had a sale. Took some practice shots of the blooms before they wilt, and when I uploaded the photos into my computer, I realized I forgot to dust some dirt off the petals (see the close-up pic).

Shirley, I too am a new comer to photography. I get the occasional “perfect shot” and want to learn more about how to get them more often. I looked into NYIP and was wondering how you like it so far. Please visit my blog peacheslittlebeak.blogspot.com or email me at peacheslittlebeak@yahoo.com. I would love to hear from you. I am constantly on the look out for anyone who can relate to my thirst for knowledge in photography.
Beautiful pictures, by the way. I look forward to seeing more.
