Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: In the pink

Pink isn’t a color I wear or have around much. With my coloring, I need darker, rich colors or I look washed out.  But spring usually brings a plethora of pinks and when they’re not near my face, I like them.  Since Cee asked for pink this week, I browsed through a few of my (unorganized except by date) files and found these two that I’d like to share.  The first is a beautiful fungus I came across in the wood of northeastern France last year.  The second is a photographic wallowing in the softness of rose petals. Except for framing and watermark, both are unedited.

    The fungus one is amazing!

    • While we were in France, I saw so many beautiful fungus and mushrooms. It was a bit difficult sometimes to get a photo, as we were usually walking the dogs and as soon as I’d stop and crouch down, they’d come over to see what was going on. 🙂

  3. You can never go too far wrong with any sort of flower macro… They always conceal impossible amounts of beauty in those fragile folded petals.

    HI Janet, I am not a pink person either. Great photos for this week. 🙂

    Thank you for stopping by my blog to comment. I really like the mushrooms (?) on the tree, I’ve never seen anyting like that before.

    • I’m not sure what it is, either, Lena. Probably a fungus rather than a mushroom, but so beautiful. Glad you joined the challenge this week. I hope to see you again.
