Macro Pumpkin Blossoms
Trivia:
These are male pumpkin blossoms.
Macro Nearly Wild Roses
Trivia:
The spider is known as a Daring Jumping Spider. It’s orange spots mean that it’s a fairly young one. The spots will turn white as it gets older. This type of spider is a hunter rather than a web weaver.
Macro White Roses
Macro Mums and Yellow Woodsorrel
Trivia:
Yellow Woodsorrel is edible.
I’d also like to mention that I like how you can now post multiple galleries to one post in WordPress. :) Very useful.

I kind of wanted to take pictures of fall leaves on a nice, sunny fall day. But the leaves haven’t quite turned yet. A few, but not mostly. So, I took pictures of flowers instead.
One of the purple ones is vinca major, but I’m not sure what the other two purple ones are. I also don’t know what the white one is. The rest are roses, sunflowers, and mums.
Some of these are available as prints.

After I finished taking pictures of the hawk I decided to take a few flower pictures while I was out in the yard anyway. There aren’t that many flowers out in my yard this time of year, but I found a few.
Some of these are available as prints.
