Texture Thursday

Seraphina and I headed out to Reynolda Gardens to see what new flowers had bloomed since the last time we were there.  A lot more has definitely come up and the fountain was on which was a sure sign that Spring is here for real.  There were a lot more flowers up and some almost ready to bloom and that is what I love about that place..literally, every time you go there, there will be a new flower(s) that has bloomed.  I didn't get as many pictures as I really wanted to, I had Seraphina strapped on my chest and it was real fun keeping her little grabby hands away from my camera..and my hair..and the flowers..  I guess that gives me an excuse to go back this weekend (though I will bring an extra set of arms this time..my husband!).

I don't remember what kind of plant this is but I think it looks so neat!

It didn't really need that much editing (in my opinion) straight out of the camera but I did use Ashley Sisks Nice & Easy action on it.  I usually play around with textures on my photos but I felt like this one had enough texture all on its own.  I love how abstract the background looks.
