I know I’ll have better, but this is my first shot from my quick visit to Filoli today.
First Shot: Yellow Tulip, 3.15.16


First Shot: Clematis, 2.22.16
First Shot: Iris with Raindrops, 2.18.16
I took a small walk and didn’t think I’d pull out the camera at all. It’s been a week of “stuff” and I’ve not been in the mood. Close to home, though, I spotted some roses that just called my name. So there you go.
First Shot: Rose with Raindrops, 12.4.15
First Shot: Plumbago: 12.2.15
I spotted these small bright red flowers growing in Nandina domestic (heavenly bamboo) but, to my knowledge, Nandina doesn’t have red flowers. Hm.
First Shot: Unidentified Red Flowers, 11.17.15
I’ve not posted a first shot in quite some time, mostly because I’ve not been doing much with the camera lately. Today, though, I had a lovely 6 3/4 mile walk, and this caught my eye when I was a bit more than two miles out. And yes, I’m being silly with the title.
