I took these pictures in my garden yesterday, before the rain.

This strange object that looks like a meteorite or piece of carved Cinnabar is actually a dahlia. I just edited and edited , using different filters and tools until this was the result. It is rather beautiful, I think, so I’m including it. I think it looks like two hooded women standing back-to-back. If you look closely, you can see the stamens in the center toward the top. They also look like the impression of a turtle.

I love the dusty miller and cactus. What a stunning combination. 😀 Gorgeous photos.

Your flowers are outstanding. The last photo looked like you’d captured a chunk Mars. Obviously, your thumb is very green.
