ShadowXM1 Posted June 12, 2020 It was a nice day out today, so I decided to take some photos of my flower bed, seeing as some of my flowers were starting to bloom again, particularly my lilies! So, I took Svetlana with me to show her around outside seeing as she seemed to be getting a bit claustrophobic inside! XD IMG_3074 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr A shot of my flower bed from the east angle... IMG_3075 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Svetlana seemed happy to be outside for a change, not to mention the change of scenery... IMG_3076 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr She fell down a few times, so I had to keep an eye on her all the while snapping photos. Turned out not to be so bad seeing as I was able to use the environment to my advantage. IMG_3077 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Standing next to my lilies of the valley, or what's left of them. If anyone knows how to acquire some more, I'd be more than happy to know! These are just SO beautiful when they bloom in the spring, little curved stalks of white flower bells everywhere! IMG_3078 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Svetlana: Is nice....but, I'm not too impressed at the moment, sorry... "Yeah, too bad you didn't see this in it's prime, before we had to spray to kill all the weeds, and the leveling company had to tear it up to fix the foundation." Svetlana: ouch... >.< IMG_3079 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr So glad I didn't lose these either! IMG_3080 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Svetlana got tired of falling over, and being used for scale, so she decided to sit down on one of the big rocks we had. XD IMG_3081 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr A shot of my flower bed from the west angle... IMG_3084 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr A better picture of Svetlana sitting down. if you're wondering what those are, those are my rose bushes! They were blooming really well there for awhile, but just one is starting to bloom at the moment. Next time I'll try to get a shot of all of them in full bloom. IMG_3085 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr There we go... IMG_3086 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Another angle... IMG_3087 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr As you can see, they're a different type of rosebush that you usually see; they still have thorns though. IMG_3088 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr A side view of Svetlana on the porch... IMG_3089 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr A close-up... IMG_3090 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Svetlana: I like it here, much nicer than Moscow, a bit on the warm side, but nothing that air conditioning cannot fix. "Well good! I'm glad you're enjoying it here. No problems?" Svetlana: No, everyone is nice, just promise me, to take me out more, I don't enjoy being inside for too long. "Well, truth be told, none of us do...." IMG_3091 by Tim McFarland, on Flickr Sorry this one's so blurry in places; tried to get both Svetlana and the rose bush too. I'm still learning about this camera. Thanks for looking! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlieriley Posted June 19, 2020 I like her! You've got a lot of personality in the poses. I need to take my girls outside. They're getting borrrred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I need to take more of my girls outside as well! Considering more of my flowers are blooming now. Thank you so much for the comments; I really appreciate them! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
