Saturday Snapshot - March 3

Saturday Snapshots is a fun little meme hosted by Alyce of At Home With Books. The idea is to post a snapshot or photo that you or a friend or family member has taken.

I took this one last summer while camping. Probably taken on auto, but I was attempting to play with depth of field a bit. If my eyes aren't fooling me, these flowers are from a Lavender plant.

I really like the way you've captured the flower sharply in focus with the background out of focus.

So lovely ...I can practically smell the lavender scent. Love the clarity of the blossom against that soft background!

Very pretty! Tried to get lavender to grow in my garden but it refuses.

What a great color! Very springy - and considering the weather, I could use a little spring.

Alyce said...

Very pretty! One of my neighbors has lavender plants all along the border of her yard and I can smell them at the oddest times of the year (even when they're not blooming).
