Flower...........

..........Friday
 
 
This was taken yesterday (Friday), but being uploaded today (Saturday).
 
Before leaving Wellington on the Cook Strait ferry to Picton and from there via road to home in the Nelson area of NZ we made a short stop at the Wellington Botanical Gardens where this orchid was photographed.
 
Gentle rain sprinkled the flowers outside and a sprinkler system provided the water drops on the ones inside the winter-house.
BikerBear is doing a wonderful job of hosting this challenge each Friday – thank you very much, Ani.
 
Thank you for the numerous hearts and stars for the photo of my two grandchildren. I’m pleased many of you like the addition of a textured layer.
Many thanks to those of you who took the time to look at Wednesday the 16th’s blip showing the sword hilt and the amazing life-like extra photos.
As always, your comments, stars and hearts for every blip are very much appreciated.
 
 This evening I will make a start personally thanking you for your gift of hearts given while I have been away – and then I will continue catching up with your journals. No doubt it will take several days.
