I enjoyed photographing them.

I later tossed a few in my front yard for some outdoor photographs. You may remember my carnation on a sidewalk.

    I like carnations. And I’m following what is happening in Isreal.

  18. Judy says:

    I especially like that pink striped with darker pink – but I seem to like that colour combination in any form. I never would have thought of tossing them on the snow, so there is the contrast between the vibrant flowers and the sparkling snow!
    Thanks for sharing!
