Happy Birthday, Mom!

It's my mama's birthday. These flowers are growing in the flower bed at the Mear house and I've been wanting to snap a photo. Since it was Mom's birthday, today seemed like a good day to do it. So...

There really wasn't enough light. I thought there was but wasn't sure and now that I've seen the photos at 100%, 'turns out there really wasn't. Just in case, I also snapped some with the flash. Which made for shadow problems. But, you can see the that the flowers just show up at the top of long stalks...no leaves. Odd, eh? But cool.

See what I mean? Wacky. Regardless: happy birthday, Mom!
