Out with the Old
Posted by danudin on December 31, 2010
This post empties out my holding folder for 2010, I will start filling it up again TOMORROW. Those who like to rag me may see an indication of things to come here, but as the song says “It ain’t necessarily so!” I have great affection and appreciation for all the bloggers who visited here and who I visited. This post however is dedicated to one in Particular, who has opted not to join the challenge in the new year but whom I hope is still going to hang around, to check that Boomer and Jinxy don’t stretch their themes too much.
THIS POST IS FOR JULIE AND YES DEAR THEY ARE FLOWERS

Are those top two yellow photos, really one photo? They look like a triptych (or duo-tych??) Love the Warhol work, too!!
Happy New Year, Ron!!

No Val sorry I ain’t that clever – Two separate shots of different blooms on the same bush.

As I have explained on numerous occasions, Everything I know about Horticulture, I learned from Dorothy Parker.

Julie McLeod said
That is very sweet of you, Ron. These flowers will certainly leave me with happy thoughts about 2010 as we bid it adieu. As you know, I will be back in 2011, just not pursuing themes with the rest of you. Have a great year and I’ll be around to visit often.
I LOVE the Warhol effect on Sally’s gerberas. Those are one of my favorite flowers too….

After the initial shock of seeing those smelly things, I realize and others probably as well, you are a great photographer when it comes to flowers. Your shots are so nice and I really like the Andy Warhol effect.

Another year down, my friend! You don’t know how much enjoyment (yes, I said enjoyment) you have put in to my blogging experience the last few years….the most valuable assets I received from this experience is all of my good blogging friends (and that includes YOU)! Wishing you and Sally the best in 2011…and looking forward to another year of you harassing me!
What a way to end the year…SMELLIES (my favorites)! Looking forward to more next year!

I think it’s wonderful that you chose to end the year with smellies. The collage on the bottow is fantastic.
Madelaine said
Love all your beautiful flowers Ron! Happy New Year to you, Sally and yours!

Love that Warhol Effect but my eye was captured by Sally’s Blood Lily in the top right corner – very attractive image in what must be Sally’s greenhouse environment.
Congratulations on cleaning out your picture folder for this year Ron, a journey I’ve thoroughly enjoyed sharing in. A visit here is always fun and interesting and I’m looking forward to another year. All the best for 2011!
p.s. aren’t you sweet dedicating your last post of 2010 to Julie!

Happy New Year Ron!!
Jens (Jinxy) said
Happy New Year Ron!!! I figure if you can post smelly things, Boomer & I can do some theme stretching, maybe in 2011 we will keep it to a slight theme tweaking. LOL
danudin said
Well maybe 2013 as the Mayans think the world will end near the end of next year. Let’s Live Dude!

These are great images, Ron, and I am very jealous. My favorite is the orange flower with the little mushrooms and frogs around it.
Mike said
Ron, you certainly know the way to a woman’s heart:)

Easier with Men, all you have to do is concentrate on the stomach.
Mary Lou said
Beautiful flowers images!! Wait…did I see that Ron posted flowers…

Thought I commented on this-I remember loving the collage. Plus, you have some excellent “smellies” there, Ron.
Are you guys ok down there? I saw on the news Australia had mucho flooding. Didn’t know if you were in the affected area.
danudin said
Yes fine thanks. we are just on the edge of it.
