Lovely images to celebrate Earth Day! I took a photo of daffodils in my garden this morning, and sent it to friends around the world.

Lovely pics! The colours are so beautiful, even on the garlic, which I never would have though of as being pretty before!

I had no idea that onions could look so, well... sexy... like a cowboy or a farmer standing all dusty on your front porch after a long hot day of in the muck and mud. He takes off his hat, knocks it against his knee and says with a nod of his head, "Evening, hun." The logical part of your brain thinks, "OOOooo, dirty, yuck!" but the smart, earthy part says, "Dang... sexy!"... you know THAT kind of sexy. ~_^ ... What can I say, your pictures inspired me! ^_^
Aloha! Laurel
