The prompt for Week 40—"before and after"

I guess this is actually before, during,
and after—but this tree peony was 
just so gorgeous in full fabulous bloom!

Project 52—"details"

A peony in full fabulous bloom is truly a
beautiful thing.  But I also like to capture them
when their petals begin to fall and you can
appreciate how they're made in fine detail.

The prompt this week: revisit one from the last year.
My choice is Week One: Nourish
I'm glad to go back to the beginning of this meme,
since I was several weeks late to the party. When I visit the
greenmarket, I sometimes feel guilty about buying flowers
—then I remind myself that they nourish my soul every bit
as much as the veggies, etc. I buy there nourish my body.

And who wouldn't love to
wake up to this sight?

Today's Flowers

It's getting near the time when the (affordable) flower
vendor stops coming to my weekly greenmarket—
I'll really miss having fresh flowers like these in the house.

Today's Flowers

This is my first post to this lovely meme—and the first
of many more, I hope.  This tree peony caught my eye even though
it was slightly past its full bloom (or maybe because it was).

Weekend Reflections

These beautiful peonies graced my
windowsill for more than a week
(and are still pretty even now that
they've dried, so I haven't tossed
them yet).
