Beautifu framing, and beautiful composition of lines, levels and flowers.

I love this, Lorraine! I love potted flowers and I agree with Paco, the composition and the different levels make this such a great image!

MrsAmber from West Wickham, United Kingdom
You do make us 'to and fro' between beauty and the machinery beasts! Here we are back to dreamy flowers and sunny days again. And lots of glorious lines in all that wood! Vertical, horizontal diagonal and criss-cross this shot has it all. Very well seen shot!.

KathyCalculates from Indianapolis, United States
I love lattice and railings on a porch and the addition of the flower pots just makes it more charming. All that is missing is my beautiful friend in a wicker chair and a glass of lemonade! Happy Friday!

Cheryl from Texas, United States
good eye Lorraine, the lines in this are great. The weathered porch gives this a "summer at the lake" feel and the flowers are icing on the cake!

Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
It seems that the time in Canada when flowers grow is so precious because deep down we know that snow is coming.

Difficult to add anything to everything that has been said before, except that my glass would probably have had Sauvignon Blanc in it rather than lemonade... :) Have a lovely weekend lol x

marianne from Toulouse, France
Dans les croisillons un peu de lierre ou de vigne, et entortillées autour de la rambrade, des lianes de jasmin, l'été est bien installé, fleuri dans ces magnifiques tons blancs !!!

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
This is so homely!!! I have many such "treasures in pots"! the contrast between wood and pots is very beautiful and quietly speak of old homes.

Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United States
