Photo Hunt - Yellow
The theme for this week's Photo Hunt is yellow. This is a gladiolus bloom from last year.
I can't spend much time at the pc at the moment what with my leg being in plaster. I will try to get around to visit as many photohunters as I can.
I hadn't heard about your leg man. Sorry to hear you're laid up, hope you get better soon so you can get some more of these! Wonderful shot. Love the way it's just floating in air there.!
Hope you heal quickly from your surgery. I love the yellow bloom...very pretty! My hunt is up, please do come and visit when you can. My hunt is what a woman in California looks like at 65!
What a gorgeous gladiolus! Great choice for the theme! I hope that you are starting to feel better and that you have lots of interesting things to occupy your time while you are recuperating!
I love the gladiolus Jams. Beautiful yellow flower with so many different shades. I hope your recovery will continue rapidly and that you will soon be well.
Sorry to hear your leg is plastered. Lovely Photo. I have been away for week end so making some late rounds. Best of luck with your leg. I hope you are keeping it raised up so it is not hungover.
So sorry about that cast. We just got through a period of orthopedic problems with my mom. She had her fourth joint replacement in November, and at 81, the recovery is lengthy. We now call her the bionic woman as she has two knees and both hips replaced. She dressed up her walker with a cloth storage apron and you would be amazed at what it holds. Good luck and get well soon.
As for this picture... it is breathtaking. It looks very surreal! I love it! Thanks for visiting.
Beautiful. I wish we have lots of that 'round here. Appreciate your visit a lot knowing you're having trouble with your leg (sorry about the cast). Thanks.

Cool perspective on the gladiolus, nice photo.
Sorry to hear about your leg and the surgery - hope that you are feeling better each day and healing up fast! Take care.
Finally, there for a while, I wasn't able to get your comment window open because of some error message from Google/Blogger!
I do LOVE your gladiolus blossom. It's one of my favorite Spring time flower!
PS...you're in a plaster cast? Oh dear.
...I had to skim down to see the reason for the cast....I sure hope the surgery works wonders and you're up and about in no time.
I love the effects. Great shot and Happy weekend!

Lovely bloom! If you lived closed I would pop by to bring the patient a bunch of daffodils for a recovery!
Take care and enjoy all the books you now have time to read and all the films you can watch! Really hope the pain is bearable!

Can I sign your cast? Take care and oh, nice shot.
Beautiful photo! I've not seen a gladiolus that colour - striking.
Take care of that leg.
Oh my gosh mate! I just read back about what happened to you - I am SO sorry! You poor soul.
Sending healing thoughts your way - and love your yellow flower.
I was remiss in not including a photo of my favorite yellow thing on the planet... I have rectified that and "Elvis is now in the building".

That's a mighty professional shot, Jam. Said with a certain dose of envy here.
