Squash Blossoms
Spring is here in full force and there is no shortage of beautiful images to capture and share. Living in the southwest we get to enjoy the rare beauty of cactus blooms in abundance, and it is truly a treat! However, when I was at the Desert Botanical Garden the other day, what ended up capturing my attention were some gorgeous squash blossoms they had planted in the herb garden section. So that is what I am sharing this week with "i heart macro".

ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! They looks quite similar to a trumpet vine blossom. That last image you shared looks fantastic. I think flowers are a perfect subject for macros.
