WW - Alium
This week's entry for the Tuesday and Wednesday editions of Wordless Wednesday.
Jams, one more please! I tried last night and my other computer bombed while it was trying to get your blog up. For a while it was faster with your new template, but it is almost as slow as the WW site.
My comment last night would have been that I was wondering if when that blossom dries, can it be blown into the winds like a dandelion?
lovely vivid colors! happy WW Jams :D

Allium is one of my favorite spring flowers. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThe strange thing, or one of them, that I'm discovering about Oz is that a lot of the "spring" flowers come up in Autumn.
Anyhoo, happy WW!
Brilliant colour.
ReplyDeleteThe color is so lively.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully framed.
Happy WW.
