Silent Sunday

Peonies are some of the loveliest of flowers and favourites of mine. They last such a short time, but are so sweet-smelling, so soft.

This was taken through a hole in a plastic bag, giving the soft focus effect. It was inspired by my participation in one of the most creative photographic mentorships I've ever experienced, in #GooglePlus

@EllieK Wow! Such an image!
@KolokokoBird thank you so much.
Just taken with the lens through a plastic bag with a hole in the end of it.
But that flower!! I agree, the best subject. (I didn't even mind that little fly.)
@EllieK ..very nice Ellie...I like the smell of them as well..just not the ants...
