Beauty all around

Sometimes I notice things in my surroundings more than other times.

yesterday it seemed that everywhere I went I saw beauty in the natural surroundings.

Like the golden field with the freshly rolled bails of hay.  It is as if it changed from a green field to a golden one overnight.

When I stopped to take that picture this was in the field by my feet.   A beautiful sun shine yellow flower with a bee busily working.

 

I love the scallop on the end of the petals….

I went on down by the lake just for a quick ride on the 4 wheeler when I couldn’t help but notice these beautiful morning glories.

Every time I see a morning glory…I think of my mother.  She would say “Morning”…. glory.  It stills makes me smile.

I turned to get back on the 4 wheeler and right before my eyes was this vine that had grown up the farm valve.  I found it so picturesque.

I do not know what those little red flowers are…but they are just beautiful.  Dainty, yet bold in color.

before me was a patch of them….now why don’t the flowers I buy look this good?

And then I saw a patch of these.  I think they are awesome looking.  I can’t help but think about the fun God must have had as HE created each plant differently, uniquely and beautifully.

Maybe this is another morning glory…I’m not sure…but I have heard that blue is the rarest color in plants.  I’m not positive about that…but I have not seen a lot of blue when I think about it.

Another pretty yellow flower…but I noticed the petals are totally different in shape than the other one.

I was amazed at all the tiny…tiny…yellow flowers on this plant….just beautiful!

This is another color I don’t see a lot in wild flowers.  A pale pink flower…when I looked closer…I could see a couple of the little buds on each stalk were beginning to bloom.

God always amazes me with His creation.

For the grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand forever.  Isaiah 40:8
