in the third year of our backyard garden, the Artemisia Silver Mound bloomed. i didn’t know it would do that.
The rich, sweet smell of the hayricks rose to his chamber window; the hundred perfumes of the little flower-garden beneath scented the air around; the deep-green meadows shone in the morning dew that glistened on every leaf as it trembled in the gentle air: and the birds sang as if every sparkling drop were a fountain of inspiration to them.

A lovely photo, beautiful depth of field and softness.
Beautiful texture in the silver mound foliage! It makes the foreground stand out perfectly. Your DoF works well here.
This is just delightful.
So lovely and soft in all these grey tints
This looks like the makings of a great garden … very cool
Oh what a wonderful surprise for you!! Such a beautiful plant – and it’s so lovely with the delicate blossom! Terrific image, Sherri!
oh gosh, what a beautiful picture!!! and the Dickens quote makes it all the more… appreciated by me…. no wonder he’s such a famous writer 🙂 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox thanks for warming my heart, sis
You perfectly rendered the delicacy of this flower, Sherri!
I enjoy your photography style. Your quotes are always such gems and are something to think about.
When surprises like that happen, it’s truly heavenly, Sherri. So glad you were able to show us.
A beautiful silver sheen on this plant. It’s very lovely and so is the bokeh.
Jolie photo, j’aime beaucoup.
Super use of depth of field and I love the wonderful gentle colour. That is a delight.
I find the silvery-green foliage on the right side to be the most attractive part of this image. I guess the small flowers are important, but they are nearly hiding behind the deep green leaves.
This is a beautiful composition. I love the color and the focus. It is very artistic.
always a lovely surprise when a plant blooms unexpectedly. Very nice image and treatment
I like this lovely low close up. the pale tones are so delicate.
Wonderful photo !
le traitement des couleurs est superbe
Très belle douceur.
