Straight Out Of the Camera Sunday




I found this yellow evening primrose growing at my dentist, in the landscaping at the rear of her building. It's much larger than the pink evening primrose that grows wild around here. I thought it was lovely, and was surprised at the snail inside the last shot. I took the shot without focusing, just stuck my camera at ground level, and pointed up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Do you ever take a photo that you love; it comes out so well, (straight from the camera), that you're not tempted to do anything with it. It's wonderful and you want to share it. I've decided to start a new meme - Straight Out Of the Camera Sunday. I'll host it here, each Sunday. So put your thinking cap on, scroll through your files and decide what to post. The subject is open, no weekly theme, just have fun. On Sunday morning, actually at 12:00 PM PST, on Saturday, I post my SOOC Sunday, and Mr. Linky.

What are the rules? On any Sunday you can post any photo you like (it must be one of your own) that hasn’t been tweaked or altered in any way (cropping is OK). In other words Straight Out Of the Camera.

    I love it Jan...I had to laugh when I saw this because I did a post for SOOC that is almost identical to yours :)

    These are wonderful! I've never really appreciated flowers much, but going through many of the memes around the web, I've learned to love them
