Daisy Delight
They say life’s simple pleasures are the best. I submit the simple daisy as supporting evidence.

Budding Artist
These wildflowers were found on a hike through the woods. It looks like plenty of blooms were in its future.

Lilac Euphoria
This is an image from early spring…when the lilac bush was in full, fragrant bloom. We have a couple of lilac bushes in our yard. Just walking by them, when they are in bloom, is a sensory treat.

Captivating Beauty
This rose may be one of the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever photographed. It is not perfect or without blemish, but there’s something about its soft blush of pink and the gentle furl of its delicate petals that captivates me; makes it difficult to look away. I snapped a lot of frames of this bloom over a couple of days. (Please excuse my gushing. I understand, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may not have the same effect on everyone.)
I found this beauty in, of all places, the small flowerbed of a motel in Branson, Missouri – the Yellow Rose Inn & Suites. They had a nice variety of blooming flowers around the property but, ironically, there were no yellow roses.

Liberal Supply of Bleeding Hearts
The bleeding hearts were in top form last weekend when I snapped this shot in my wife’s flowerbed.

Thriving Mist Daisy
I found this delightfully healthy bunch of daisies growing wild in a ditch near my home. I photographed them on a foggy morning, which provided the moisture.

Simple Pleasures
Sometimes, life’s simple pleasures are the best. There’s nothing fancy about these wildflowers; found growing along a roadside. They are simple and beautiful in their simplicity.

Spring Floral Flair
Daffodils are a common sign of spring. I found these growing naturally on a hillside in town. I particularly like the red flourish of this variety.

Fresh Trillium
The trillium is a very common, early spring bloomer in our area. This specimen is at the very beginning of its bloom.
