Our peonies are in bloom, and I brought enough in to create a bouquet for the dining room table since we had guests for dinner on Monday night. Here are two views, one from the top, and a closer look from the side.
I’m linking this pair up to Helena’s meme, Pairs, where you can always find some weekly inspiration for your photography.
This also qualifies for my first find (and #1 on the list) for Rinda’s Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt. Almost every year, there is one item for which I find multiple subjects. A bouquet of flowers may just be the item this year. It’s not too late to join in on the fun. You can check out the list on Rinda’s side bar. And on my sidebar, you can click on the Summertime Photography Hunt image and it will take you to this year’s SmugMug album.
how wonderful to have so many peonies in your garden that you can pick a bouquet worth
gorgeous peonies!! All those layers of petals!!!
I don’t know if I still have peony plants in my garden…I will have to go check!
These are just delicious – real ice-cream colours. You’ve captured them beautifully, Karen.
As Alexa said: delicious! I think your photography is exquisite. So glad we get a chance to see.
Cheers~
I really like peonies, such a heady fragrance. Mine are still tight buds
Lovely – one of my favourite flowers. Mine are just unfurling now and I nearly used them for pairs but changed my mind…
You have to be quick with peonies..they don’t last long! Lovely pictures
You have some beautiful peonies, I am going to plant some in the garden when I have the room, I have a tree stump that has to be dug out and that is where they will go.
Beautiful peony photos!
I am SO missing the peonies from our old house and am on the hunt for some new plants for our new garden/house.
Just beautiful! I can smell them from here!
What a lovely start to the scavenger hunt and this week’s pairs. So nice to have so many in the garden that you can be generous on the table.
Simply stunning Karen and well done for a great start with the Scavenger Hunt.
Just beautiful, especially the top view
