Today's Flowers

This is the first time I participate in Today's Flowers and I thank Luiz very much for inviting me.


The first flower I want to post is simply a bluebell.

This one grows in the woods and I photographed it on one of our hiking tours through Austria's Northern Alps this summer.

Marie: Those Bluebells are quite beautiful. I like the way the background turned out so ethereal.

Hi Maria, The bluebells look so lovely. I think there is nothing nicer than hiking in the alps on a sunny summer day.) Thanks for your visit. My mother came from Kaernten. I still have four cousins in Austria. The youngest, much, much younger than I am lives in Vienna. I have never seen him. I have been to Vienna last September, I had a European holiday. As a child (a hundred years ago!) I spend holidays in Kaernten, on the lakes. Mein Deutsch ist ein bisschen rostig.

Hi maria!
I like blue color.
so I like blue color flowers!
Do you live near Alps?
there is not nature near my house.
So I'm jealous of you:)

Hello Maria! How beautiful - it is so norwegian as well:) And, from now on I will write in both norwegian and english on my page so you can understand more than just Pølse, pasta and pesto!! Nice evening to you. Hugs**

I like bluebells too! I have some that are growing quite wild in my garden. In the city it is a problem because they crowd my other flowers but here at the cottage I can let them grow where they want!
