WW - Hellebore
More garden blooms. This week's entry for the Tuesday and Wednesday edition of Wordless Wednesday.
gorgeous flower! happy WW :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful blossom. Great WW, Jams.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to pluck that blossom and stick it in my hair and then prance around imitating Amy Winehouse.
ReplyDeleteNo, wait a minute. Alas, I don't think they even sell enough black eyeliner around here for me to pull off the Winehouse look.
this is lovely.
ReplyDeleteplease accept the Art Award because you deserve it.
