Stand by me

These two poppies are supporting each other after last night's rain. Taken before today's further deluge , it has been raining all afternoon, the plants in the garden will be so happy as long as they don't fall over because of the rain ! I hope it didn't rain in most of the UK while all those street parties for your Queen's 70th Jubilee were going on, I hope she enjoyed all the events even if she couldn't participate in most of it !

Thanks so much for last week's Abstract Thursday entries. It was fun to see your un-themed creativity including some really nice Jubilee abstracts. This coming Thursday the optional theme is 'rusty abstract' and the tag will be AT363. Rust can be very photogenic, certainly from close up .

Here are last week's 5 specials:
turnx3                     Jubilee filled frame
Mole                        green repetition
Skeena                    ICM lupins
PhotoPlay               chives flower abstracted
gen2                         colourful rust

And thanks very much for the kind comments and stars for yesterday's waiting bath toys :-)
