This is just for bragging rights, but since spring is here I figured its time to spotlight some member photos.  I will choose 1 threw 5 and maybe two honorable mentions

All photos must be newly posted to gather, but they do not have to be recenly taken.

I will be choosing the winners and since I dont play favorites every one has an even chance of winning

I prefer closeups, to me they are the most appealing.  No black and whites.  No selective color images.

One main rule of this contest is do not spam gather members to come and check out your shot, if you do and someone sends me the email I will removed you from the contest and group.  I believe your work should speak for its self. Images accepted threw April 30th

all images must be taged:  photos in bloom     or they will not be considered!
all must be posted to Photos in Bloom
only enter the image in this contest and no other during the contest time but you can submit it to other groups.

Sounds fun.

I took a bunch of floral photos at the store the other day. (We have ZERO outside flowers anywhere here due to temps in the 30s and 40s still. It's finally getting to the 50s this week so maybe soon there will be some outside.

What a great idea but I am terrible with close-ups. I love this photo it looks so real I feel like I could touch it.

That is a very pretty flower. I am so jealous that I cant grow good flowers, just the rose bush.
