Watery Wednesday #34

Time to pull out those water shots, get out those water goggles and flippers and get a little cyber wet! This was taken at Descanso Gardens standing on a small bridge that crosses over a stream that runs through the beginning of the Camelia Gardens. You can see a few petals of camelias that have fallen into the water.

It seems Mr. Linky is working again but if you're having any problems use the comments to let us know you're participating this week.




RULES: Create your Watery Wednesday post first then come back and enter your name and the link to your post in the spaces provided above. Next, just have fun visiting the other entrants to see their posts. If you leave a comment they'll know you've visited and will visit you in return. Have fun!



You can use the images below to link back to this post.



Reminder, I start this on Tuesdays because there are parts of the worlds where Tuesday is already Wednesday.

These are magnificent photos. I really love them!

I like the little water fall with the camelia petals - I've noticed they seem to last much longer in water than other petals (I guess because they're quite waxy)

I've just tried the Mr Linky widget and it seems to do everything as normal?

You didn't miss this last week's post sweetheart, the Koi photo was for Wordless Wednesday... the Millrace photo was for Watery Wednesday... but both were for this week.

And you left a comment on my Sea Oats post last week... so you're not behind. Just confused.

So cool and lovely.

The water looks nice and refreshing, but all the little colored leaves really make these images special.

Beach House Dreamer said...

I think that we can "learn" a lot from a flowing stream! Beautiful.

LuLo Designs/Blue Eyed Tango said...

Lovely photos you have here! I love all the color in them! Wonderful! Thanks for hosting and Happy Watery Wednesday!

Bryan said...

Beautiful colors in these...but for some strange reason, the first one makes me think of jaws and teeth. Like maybe I'm looking into the mouth of a whale that hadn't gotten much to eat recently so it decorated the inside of its mouth to attract more visitors/dinner.

Beautiful. I love the leaves in the water.

Beautiful! The waterfall with leaves and flower petals. Do you, by any chance, sell prints?

I recognized this little part of the Camellia area right off but you made it look so much better. You caught it at the right time when it is not drying up and the petals... too cool.
