colin hill Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Jim,Namaqualand is a beautiful part of our country and it is amazing how the flowers just spring up from nowhereonce the rains start. I think you captured the beauty of the Namaqualand daisies very well and I loved your close up shots.All in all, a very good show which I enjoyed.Thanks for sharing.Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I envy you having this "garden" so close to you. We tried growing them from seed here, but they didn't take. I found a nursery that will have them as annuals this year so I hope to plant a few in the front yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great angles.BillThank you for hosting Bill !!I also love the down in the dirt ones looking up too. Not always easy to do those, but the right angled viewfinder helps, maybe my next camera will have a rotating LCD viewer on the back like my point and shoot does.
