Welcome to Saturday’s Photo Hunt by Tn. Chick. The theme this week is purple. This should have been a very easy one for me. Purple is my favorite color and half my closet is in some shade of purple. Put, I actually planned to post several photo’s of some purple houses I found during our travels.
Regrettably, my PC crashed this week. I was not as careful as I should have been about backing up my files so all my photo’s are now in Limbo waiting for our local computer whiz to have time to try an retrieve them. Only time will tell.
So I had to go back to some old CD’s looking for some purple. These shots are all several years old but I like them and hope you do too.
First is my Mother dressed for a costume party as a bunch of grapes. By the time this was taken a few of her grapes had been picked, err, I mean popped.
Next is some purple flowers I found at the botanical gardens in San Diego. I had never seen them before or since. They look like cabbage to me. Can anyone name them for me?To join in the fun or just enjoy all of this weeks shots visithttp://tnchick.com/
Hope you get your pics back soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat choices for the theme, the grape custom is fun!
My pic is up, happy weekend!
All that purple goes with your purple blog. Great choices.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! I love the cluster of grapes. What a fun costume! I'll bet we won't see many of those during this PhotoHunt.

I adore her costume....what a great sense of fun and charm she must have. And the flowers are super.
ReplyDeleteMine is posted now...if you can, come on over to say howdy!!! Happy Saturday to you.
The balloon costume photo is great.
ReplyDeleteI would freak if balloons popped all around me! But I love the color!
ReplyDeleteYes, those plants are a decorative cabbage. I've never seen such a lovely lavendar before.
I did purple, too. I hope you have time to see! http://newyorktraveler.net/photo-hunters-purple/

Oh, I hope you get your photos back! When our PC crashed we were able to retrieve most of them, but some of them were irretrievably damaged.

ReplyDeleteI could be terribly wrong but I'm pretty sure that the plant is called Decorative Flowering Kale.
