Round Robin Challenge: The Color Purple

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Saturday, March 7, 2009


This challenge is from Vicki at Maraca.

Purple is hard to get, and it's certainly subtle in this photo of a wild garlic blossom:

Bee on Wild Garlic

My monitor isn't properly calibrated right now, so I hope it comes out.

And yes, we have a bonus bee!

Hi Julie :)

Great photo! At first I thought it was grapes, but the I realized that was a stalk rather then a vine. LOL. Yep, I am almost awake this morning. :) Nicely done.

 

Always, Carly

Hi!
Love your purple!  I didn't know about wild garlic!  Love the flower it makes and evidently so does the bee!  Thanks for stopping by my place.  Have a great evening!!

    Beautiful macro shot. I didn't know wild garlic was so pretty!
Chives have pretty purple flowers too, but we won't see those around here for months yet.

Nice, subtle color. I didn't know that garlic had blossoms, much less nice purple ones.
