Description
I am still learning with my little Pentax Optio MX4 and have discovered the beauty of color in the strangest places.
I took this photograph of some pretty little purple flowers (have no idea what they are) as they pushed forward to gain sunlight from beneath a pile of bricks near my garden. After looking at the picture on my screen, I decided I kind of liked the colors of the bricks as much as the flowers. :-)
I hope you enjoy and never feel you can't get along with those around you. We only need to keep trying. ;-)
Comments welcome and thank you for your kind comments on my previous experiments.

Oh how lovely. Im not sure what they are, but they look very much like Bluettes. A very small dainty flower that pushes its way up in clumps usually in spring. Of course these could also be blue star flowers. But whatever they are they are wonderful. Hugs Emma great photo!
It's positively beautiful Mags... a true testimony to the tenacity of nature. Excellent composition on this one, perfect lighting, just wonderful and adding to my favs!!!!!
The colors bounce beautifully against each other. You have a great eye for color!Love how this shows beauty can survive anywhere.
a beautiful capture... :) i like not just the little secret you spotted here - i also like the color contrast
How unusual...but brilliant! You have caught the colours and textures perfectly! LOL!!! No I didn't sell the picture in my Gallery for $5,000 this was a leg pull! LOL!!! 'C Yer! Alan. xxx
Awesome composition!!
Great shot.
What a great eye you have ! This is really an excellent composition, perfectly captured ! Bravo, Maggie ! :~)
Beautifully seen and capture, superb shooting here !! Nature will triumph !!!! :o)
Excellent shot I love it and flowers grow well around rocks I have quite a few as I live in the desert and both back and front are rocks and we find the pretties little flowers:VOTE
nature is always trying to reclaim what man has left behind with beauty like these flowers!!!
Wonderfully seen and fantastic capture !!
excellent Maggie! there's just something about this image that really attracts my eye!! superb work!
Maggie I love this one enough that I would hang it in my home. Each brick has its own interesting personality and even though they seem to be in shadow, they convey warmth through their colors. On a color wheel you will find orange and blue opposite to one another because they are complimentary colors, the name Friendly Neighbors truely does fit this photo.
