Lost in Poppy Love




My first two poppy flowers have sprung open today. They are simply stunning. I've not grown poppies before.
 I've been busy with my camera this morning, so busy I will need some time to sift and sort. 
But for now I just wanted to share this glorious image and enjoy all the beauty still happening outside
 as well as what I've captured so far........hope your day is as sunny and wondrous as mine!!!!  

Sharing some poppy love with you!

    Vibrant and lovely!
    I really like the black background that shows this poppy off beautifully.
    I never noticed before that you had music - very soothing.

    This is so pretty. I don't think poppies grow too well around me. At least I never see them.

    Love your poppy! I took few poppy pics from Botanical Gardens Sydney. Poppies are so subtle. Yours looks like heart as well. Did I see you at Alicia's blog? Have a great weekend, Sonishka.

    We loved that play on words in your title.

    And to hear the robin sound as I came to your site... what a delight! Ours are all migrating south already for our winter. It always feels a little sad when they pack up their little bags and move on.

    So what a treat to come here!
