A light frost had taken its toll on the Zinnia’s and I set about to clean them out. The bees, hover flies and skippers were just having to much fun in the blighted patch, so, I let them go a few more days and took pictures instead.Here’s one of my visitors for Musin with Susan’s Macro Moment -Week 17.
“And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? Matthew 6:28-30
Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week continues the flower theme with the colors pink and magenta. As I looked back to last summers flower photos, it seems that pink attraced a great deal of interest from butterflies and bees. So, a bonus comes with my entry this week.
According to the weather forecast, lingering flowers will not be surviving the weekend. I snapped these quickly in a free moment last night. Like the butterflies preceding them, these flowers will soon fade. The upside, fall colors peak beginning this weekend in Holmes County Ohio. I’ll be enjoying the daily commute. Enjoy the last fresh flower flourish. From here on out these images will be the memories of a season past.
These Zinnia buds captivated my attention. Unique in each stage with unfolding detail they presented an interesting gallery for Macro Monday. Enjoy, thanks for Visiting.
