Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
Le roi des balcons et des terrasses. Cette année je suis fainéante, j'ai rien planté... Certaines années ma pergola croule sous les potées multicolores... les envies sont différentes chaque années... ainsi va la vie...

@Evelyne Dubos: Ainsi la vie, tu l'as bien dit, c'est ma seule plante, donne par un voisin, j'aime beaucoup les plantes mais sur mon terrain il y a tellement d'arbre que le soleil n'est pas la souvent, mais j'adore les arbres lol

HaHa! My friend! You are fabulous! Garage sale mojo aside, this was a fabulous photo. I love the red and the lighting only enhanced what was already so gorgeous!
P.S. I feel I'm getting a mini-French language lesson each day as I read through the comments! That's fun!

Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
You got a great geranium shot here, Lorraine. I like the way the pre-bloomed ones sort of hang there until it's their turn to shine.

@k@: Merci ma petite ;)
