Striped Zennia

Pictures From Spring Valley

Striped Zinnia

The zinnias in our garden are coming to the end of their season. This one came from a package called Candy Cane Mix. I took this picture in late August, when the zinnias were at the height of their colors. Can you imagine trying to paint a design like this on a flower? I don't even know if I could draw a flower like this. But I think my picture came out pretty well.

That's a beautiful flower and an equally beautiful photograph.

That's amazing how you got it in focus so close up.

What color! Flowers are hard to photograph--this one is very sharp.

Looks like it got caught in a red shower of paint!
