Black and White Wednesdays ~ Weeds


I have a new favorite quote.


It would be a wonderful quote no matter who said it.


But the fact that Eeyore said it
{he's my favorite Pooh character}
makes it even more special!


Cause I love a rose or a tulip as much as the next person.
Really, I do.
But of all the thousands of photos I've taken these last few years,
I think it's my photos of weeds that I love the most.
Especially these teeny, tiny, withering beauties
that have become favorite iPhone macro subjects.


Don't worry.
I didn't forget about the quote
.
"Weeds are flowers too, 
once you get to know them."
Eeyore
{A.A. Milne}


Please share your Black & White photos with us here today!

  14. Amen...the Pooh characters have some really good things to say. There is one weed that I get that has the most precious pale lavender color and I didn't even realize it was a weed at first. Beautiful photos!
