June Photography Challenge, Day 12: Sunset (or something)


Needed to take artistic license yet again. With Lana's bedtime being well before dark, it's rare that I witness a sunset these days. I'm sure I could sneak out for one, but why bother when I can share these beauties with you instead!

I put them in water after coming home from Trader Joes and literally watched them open before my eyes! 20 minutes prior to taking this picture, all 5 bulbs were completely closed. They're all fully open now...they actually look like they're bursting; straining to bloom just a tiny bit further! They look fabulous in my tin pitcher (thanks mom!) and smell lovely. Yay for fresh flowers!
