Dale asks us to “show us your Christmas” for the Cosmic Photo Challenge. On my walk on Christmas day I spotted these flowers among others.
My smile this week for Trent P. McDonald’s The Weekly Smile is much the same as it has been. In particular I was wondering if I would find anything to photograph on December 25th worth posting to meet Dale’s challenge. Sometimes I’m too distracted. There are times I am so preoccupied I forget to take photos. I smiled with relief when I spotted these flowers. I don’t know why I saw them. I must have missed them on previous walks. Perhaps they weren’t blooming then.

A nice treat for the eyes on this blustery, Canadian winter’s day. Thank you for sharing, Frank.

I really like the bright magenta of the flowers contrasting with the deep blue of the water.

Beautiful photo with what appears to be bougainvillea against the blue water and the blue sky. I was born in Florida and lived in many places throughout the state until we moved to Georgia.

It may be bougainvillea, but I do not know the names of most of the plants here. I have mainly lived in Indiana, Illinois and Maine until retirement. Thank you, Eugenia!

A great reminder of some place warmer than where I am 😉

One of the joys of a regular route – plants & flowers that bloom & grow, so that we get little surprises on our walks!
