You know something: I love those composites very much, like oxeyes, mums, daisies, and gerberas. Your photos are stunning, especially the second one.
ReplyDeleteI was never sure of these as a child - they always seemed to be full of earwigs.
ReplyDeleteThey look very nice here though.
oh my gosh, your pictures are so pretty! great shot on the one with the bee!
ReplyDeleteMy "O" photos are now posted here and here. Hope you can pass by, too! Thanks!

ReplyDeleteLove the fine pattern in that first shot...
ReplyDeleteGreat catch with the bee...
When I was a kid (a very long time ago) I used to tear their petals off one by one in an attempt to find out if my little girlfriend really loved me or not...
They're so natural and so perfect too.
ReplyDeleteI think there are lots of varieties and names of that one - but a beautiful subject for photography it is.
ReplyDeleteStunning photos. I love the x-eye daisy, though we called them Marguerites where I grew up.
ReplyDeleteI love the one with the hover fly
ReplyDeleteThat second photo with the bee zeroing in the daisy's center is a real prize winner!
ReplyDeleteI love the one with the hoverfly! That's a really nice picture!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful shots. Very cheerful. Good luck with your assignment and will look forward to seeing your shots when you are back to blogging. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteOh, SO pretty! Just made my day! I love daisies! They make me think of my Mommy!
