Description
Had just watered my flowerpots and saw these delightful droplets on my Gazanias.
Took severel good shots, I will share as a series. Hope you wont get tired of them. I didnt. ;-)
ZOOM is well worth the clicks I promise.
Have a lovely sunday.
We have cloudy, humid weather today and only 19C, but it will become 22 degrees C later in the day. Almost no wind. MY fav weather :)

Absolutely FAB full size! We still have unbearable heat, it was over 30C in my garden yesterday with no sign of let-up so far.

Loverly color, lighting, and lots of waterdrops in this super shot of your gazania flower, a species I never heard of. 38.33 Celsius in my patio today for most of the day. 39.4 yesterday, so it's cooling off bit by bit. It was a record breaking 46.1 C just two days ago. We have no wind or air circulation. Andrea would never be able to take it.

Another knockout flower shot: Great closeup. I love the textures of the droplets and the tiny ones near the stamen section. Full size is a must, yes! And your crop takes us right into the center: Great deep oranges, great sunburst in the middle (with dark corona), terrific detail. You're doing flowers proud these days, Helle---incl your recent painting. Love this shot.
(And btw: "Gazania" sounds like a name someone made up to 'sound' like a flower. (("What are these?" "Ohhhh---I dunno: How 'bout Gazanias?" "Yeah right, dude...")) It was named after---this is real, now---Theodor of Gaza, who lived in the 1400s. I didn't know that: I looked it up. If I actually knew that, I mean, if I actually learned and logged that fact, I'd be in worse trouble, mentally, than I already am...)

This is just gorgeous! Full-size is definitely a must. Absolutely wonderful shot, Helle!

Gorgeous! I love these. They're cheerful in a sort of understated way. Just the right amount of pizzaz! All three are wonderful shots. Love 'em!
