I ♥ Macro Sunday!
Not satisfied being just a pretty garden flower, peonies are exuberantly large, with ruffled depth and petticoat-like ruffles. I love to snip the stems short and float the blossoms in shallow bowls or stemware dessert glasses.

I love the shot with the sky in the back ground. Great perspective. And the full blown Peony, just awesome!
It amazes me how often we take macro of the same thing, I only shared one Peony photo but still. That is a beauty!!
Glorious!
Terrific shots. I love peonies in the bud stage.
I also love peonies. They are so lovely!
Nice pics!
They’re gorgeous! I love peonies.
Goodness, the progression of your photos would make a fabulous flip-book. I actually sighed wile scrolling down the blooming of the flower and the unfurling of all those petals. Wonderful!!
Thanks Hope. Your comment made me smile!
Lovely garden and beautiful flower. GREAT ……..
