The Jazz Age 1920's & Flowers



Hi everyone!  I want to thank you all so much for your comments on my posts!  I am deeply touched to know that my posts are brightening your days, it really makes my day to know this!  A heartfelt thanks to you all!

For this post I chose a video entitled "The Jazz Age 1920's" which I find cute and nostalgic.  Hope you all enjoy it!

As for the photo I am sharing today, it is one that I took in the summer of 2011.  To be perfectly honest, when I first began taking photos of flowers, I was so embarrassed at the results that I just didn't bother sharing them with anyone.  They were not clear at all and I know why.  I had a tendency to move when I snapped the photos...a friend had suggested to me to get a tripod.  I told her that I didn't wish to do this, as it would not help me to learn to keep a steady hand.  Since the moving of my hand is not a disability, just due to being a bit nervous due to lack of experience in taking photos, I decided to continue trying until I was happy with my photos.  :) With that having been said, even though I know my photos are not as nice as some other people's, I am happy to be able to take walks, enjoy nature, take the photos and share them.  Here is my photo...you just need to click on it to see a larger view.

Thank you all so much for visiting me here!  I really appreciate and enjoy reading your thoughts, which you can always share by clicking on the 'comments' link at the end of my post.

  5. They taught us in school that Jazz was the only genre of music invented in America. They're a little wrong.

  6. Your flower photos are very nice. You seem to have developed a steady hand and take much better pictures than I ever can. I enjoyed the jazz videos. Some of the fashions reminded me of the way the ladies dress in Downton Abbey. Do you watch that series?
