Just living is not enough.....

'Just living is not enough', said the butterfly,
"One must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower"


~ Hans Christian Anderson




I love taking shots for flowers, just a few to share here

until I get photoshop, all the photos here are un-touch and in its original form directly from my camera

Our driver stopped 2 second for me to take this picture and got a ticket for $85, we end up paying for him because we felt really bad, ridiculous CA rules?

Congratulations on your new DT gig! You must just download Picasa - it's a free photo editing programme & far more user friendly than Photoshop - I know as I have them both! Lovely flowers :)
