The weather has been cool and wet each day since Monday's sunny Athletics Carnival. A little sunshine snuck through the clouds today, so welcome after its absence.

One more gerbera, yet to reveal its colours, still holds its secret close.

African daisies continue to bloom constantly, adding bright pops of colour to our winter garden.
The bulbs I planted are slowly growing, I think these must be ranunculus as the foliage is unfamiliar.
More happy daisies, soaking up the brief sunlight. Winter is so much nicer with a little sunshine!

What beautiful, beautiful photos!

I love that fifth photo! I need a macro lens. Cool and wet weather sounds wonderful- it's summer here and I live in a part of the U.S. that gets blazing hot and summer drags by. But it gets pretty hot in Australia when you have summer too, doesn't it?
Beautiful colours and wonderful macros!
Hi Nicole....I don't have a macro lens but a macro conversion lens - you'll find more details here http://piecesofcontentment.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/dancing-and-singing.html
Yes, we do have long hot summers, not as hot as many areas of Australia (thankfully).
wonderful macros!
ciaooo...:)
Chciałabym, aby mi takie piękne kwiaty rosły chociaż jesienią w ogrodzie, bo o zimie to nawet pomarzyć nie ma sensu. Piękne zdjęcia. Pozdrawiam.
I wish me such beautiful flowers growing in the garden in autumn though, because the winter is even dream does not make sense. Beautiful pictures. Yours.

Wow, those pink & blue ones definitely do pop up, like out of my screen! What a Creator God we have, I'm overwhelmed.
Wieder mal ganz faszinierende Makros von dir.
LG Mathilda ♥
You achieve such great color and clarity with your magnifier! I practiced again this morning. Sometimes I get a "tunnel effect" - not sure why. Let us know what color that bloom is when the bud fully opens!
Beautiful shots! I love the detail and color in the last one. Thank you for sharing!
I love the shot of the bud before it bloomed. They are all fantastic as usual, but that one is so magnificent. I love the details. I could just reach out and touch it.
Spectacular photos! Have a nice weekend!
I'm in awe of your amazing technique with your first and last shot - could look at them for a long while. But am more amazed with the story I see behind your second shot.
wow, amazing last shot :)
Every season needs sunshine to brighten up the days.
Love the African daisies. What a delight to still have them blooming in wintertime.
Bye,
Marian
beautiful!
I love gerbers. I've never grown them, but they are always striking regardless of color.
i really love the details of the green bud picture...so fluffy and soft, I want to touch it! love the idea of showing the whole cycle too:-)
Such beautiful pictures!!! WOW!
Such beautiful macros, I love to see them opening up too, wondering what gorgeous colours are about to be revealed :)
Beautiful marco shots!
Incredible colour and composition on all of these!
Wow! What AMAZING shots! Always lovely...
Did I happen to mention you are brilliant? :)
Fifth image down is stunning!! They all are really. With you, there is no one favorite in the bunch. Amazing work, Karen! :)
