Some more… botanical pictures from the botanical gardens. Trying to take my mind off things a bit.
I generally try to avoid backlighting, but sometimes one has to make exceptions.
Flowers, or possibly space aliens.
Flower peek-a-boo.

Odd, I’ve had the compulsion to take pictures of flowers and other nature-y things lately too.
I was so busy yesterday I missed the news about the kitty. I’m sure she is frolicking in kitty heaven this very instant.

The first flower is Columbine (some form of Aquilegia, probably a hybrid if it’s domesticated. They’re considered an old-fashioned flower, but I agree — they’re alien! I love them. They grow wild sometimes at Piney Fork in Jefferson Hills, PA.
The second is Vinca, probably Vinca minor, also known as periwinkle.
Very nice photos!

Nice! I like the peek-a-boo flower a lot. So much green and one little blue flower.

[…] Yes, more pictures of leaves. Just local Pittsburgh ones this time, though. None of those exotic South Carolina leaves or anything like that. […]
