Lovely flower and colour, one of my favourite but i never make it grown in my garden, don't now why? Thank you for your visit and comment Liss. Have a lovely week ahead. Mei
Cracking shot Lisa! So love the texture you have used. I was hoping to shoot this very same flower over the weekend but the rain and cold weather ruined the petals, just got to wait for some new buds to open now we have summer back at last! Have a great day!!
ciao carissima amica d'oltre Oceano! come va? e così il blog compie un anno... il mio lo compirà a dicembre! questa foto è bellissima... metti sempre fiori con il mio colore preferito :) un bacione dalla Puglia!
Good morning Lisa, What a lovely image to start the day with! Perfect subtle use of texture, focus, and purple... my favorite color!!! Happy blogging anniversary to you! Your space is so special - I"m always happy to be here. Your work and everyones at the CE is super inspiring! So generous of you to give away a space in S.C.'s Unravelling course. Thanks for this give away opportunity :) Hope your week is wonderful! Cheers, Anna
Love you too, Lisa. I decided to participate in the August Break as well. It's going to be difficult for me not to post any words, but I'm going to try. :) Lovely floral photo, as usual today.
what a lovely photo lisa! So exquisite! And also, I might want to take part on this Aug Break challenge but we'll see about that, I just love the idea of photos without words and I think I can start just that... Advance blogversary to you as well.. you definitely have came a long way! More inspiration and more beautiful shots Lisa!
Look at what's going on inside that perfect flower . . . WOW.
Interesting idea . . . posting photos with no words, no comment, no descriptions, no thoughts. Sounds like a noble idea, refreshing. Not sure I'd be good at that. Ha.
that photo is just beautiful. don't enter me in the contest, but i just had to comment on your beautiful flower. also, i just found 'what's a guy to do' yesterday after being referred by a friend. hilarious, that girl, and truly creative!!! :)
Lovely image. Safe travels to Boston! And I love Cat and have loved following her saga of Stanley and Pete! I'm guessing that a relocation service will be assisting Pete in his new residence.
No woofs for August!?! That won't do for de Superdog, Lisa! How can ma friend Kitty know what I'm saying? And who's Cat and her saga? I am soooo far behind and I get drooly late and what BUT... I'm woofy back, Lisa!
Your flowers are always so beautiful Lisa.. its like entering a very special garden when I come to visit..one filled with beauty and peace.. thank you for that.. hope your day is kind and soft..
lisa, you are one of the nicest people I've ever met. You're so genuine in your comments and posts. I feel fortunate to have found your site, and call you my friend. I look forward to your August break because your photos are stunning... with or without words!
congrats on one year of blogging. I'm a bit new to the Exchange, but it's fast become one of my favorite creative expression outlets. and I'm going to take this opportunity to thank you for not only hosting, but for being so gracious and supportive in your visits/remarks. each week you manage to make the time to visit me and gift me (and each participant) with your support and encouragement and that truly does impact my heart in the loveliest of ways. I hope you have a fun-filled week Lisa.
Congrats on your first anniversary, Lisa! What a wonderful site you've created for all of us! It's already time for August Break? I'm definitely doing it again this year...isn't that how we met? Lovely flower!
Ohh I like the idea of the August break from words, but I don't know if I can keep quiet for a whole month. I'm so moody and seem to have moments of lots to say and moments of nothing to say :)
Thanks for the kind comment today and I look forward to getting to know you better ~ congrats on one year, you look like you've been at it for much more!
Lisa your image is so stunning. I love purple. I would love to do the Aug. but I will be away for a week or more. When I cant find the words or my mojo wow it hurts. Have a wonderful day.
Hey Lisa- Put me down in the random drawing with a lucky number....Unraveling #1 sounds like a fantastic course. While an August Break....I don't know if I can shut up like that. Maybe next year, but I'll think about. I've got one of those minds that's constantly wondering about things-trouble for sure. Love your purple bloom. You truly create the most beautiful flower EVAH! (If you're going to be around Boston with your son, ya gottah learn a little New England). I AM going to link up to CE this week...later. Have a great day.
What a fantastic picture and wonderful post, Lisa! Thanks for that hilarious link - can't wait for the final part! :-) Thanks also for mentioning August Break - Susannah's blog somehow got lost on my reader and I didn't see it. I'm so glad I had discovered it last year as I met you there in the flickr group! And congratulations on your blogging anniversary - your blog is so inspiring and I enjoy every minute here!
Congratz on the first anniversary of your blog. It's my very first visit and I will be following you from now on, 'cause your photography is amazing and oh so inspiring. Thanks for sharing all this beauty! And for mentioning Susannah Conway. I think her e-courses are amazing and Unraveling has been on my wishlist for quite a while. I hope you will enjoy your August Break. Dear greetz
Looks like a little pixel magic! No words...I can do that! BTW, I checked in on Pete and Stanley but was unable to leave a message. The series is a hoot!
Hi Lisa, thank you for this opportunity to win. Love your photo and texture. I am now home from vacation and look forward to a few days to play catch up before I have to go back to work. Congratulations on you milestone!
I want to know how you get such a pristine African daisy blossom?? ;-) Mine always have little flecks of dirt or pollen on them! This is just glorious, Lisa! The light is fabulous.
I just joined up with the august break, can't believe the last year has gone so quickly and that is where we met! love your shot today, just got back from a week in Italy so am completely behind with all my shots.
Hi Lisa, I want to thank you for stopping by and for your warm words of encouragement. They've left a smile on my face and a spring in my step. I love the concept of creative exchange as well... it's so easy to enter and make friends. I love it! I hope you have a great day :) geetlee
Hi there! I'm new to your blog and wanted to say how wonderful it is! Thank you for inviting our photo's, connecting is really important and on reading your other post on blogging friends, I hope to be included in your list of blog friends over time :)
This photo made me sigh - love the colors and treatment! Congratulations on your anniversary! I'll have to check out the August Break - I didn't know about it!
Congratulations on your blogiversary, Lisa. I love your photography, so inspiring. Thank you so much for offering a chance to win a place on Susannah's Unravelling course. I would LOVE to participate!! And I hope to take part in August break.
Congrats on your blog turning 1 soon!! And for participating in the August Break (I am too). Thank you for using so much purple in your beautiful photos and for hosting a place for everyone to express themselves freely. It's wonderful and so are you!

August break sounds good to me, have to check that out ( I'm not so good with words so it would be just great:) I'm just back home from Copenhagen and little worn out, it was so beautiful out there. It is only 1 hour 30 minutes fly from here so have go back once a year at least if we just have money (it is very very expensive there). If you ever come to Europe you must go Denmark you would love it. Henrietta
No Creative exchange for me this week, but I'm back to a bit of blogging and the August break seems the perfect way to begin again. And a spot in Susannah's course might also be just the thing I need amongst the hustle and bustle of learning to be a mum.
Thanks so much for linking up to Cottage Flora Thursday's last week! What a gorgeous flower! good luck with 'August Break'. Hope to see you again this upcoming week! xoxo, tracie

Hi Lisa!
What an interesting idea wordless posts for August! I doubt if I can participate though.
I love your flower shot, as always. How inspiring to see nature captured that way.
And thank you for thinking of us. We are safe and hope that rare tornado will not visit us again!
I will try to post this week but if I can't make it, I'll do one next week ;-)
Have a great week!
Beautiful photo, Lisa! Your photo's always make me smile.
What a wonderful gift to give a lucky winner!
(I will be out of town Sept.26, so I won't be entering my name in the contest)

Your photo is so indulgent and simple. Beautiful!
That August Break sounds very intriguing, especially since all the going-back-to-school craziness will be beginning soon. It may leave me speechless!
Hope you have a wonderful week, Lisa!
