Beautiful!! Wrinkles aside... hmm... hollyhocks are among my favorite flowers. They are so "old fashioned" - not the sort of thing you see in new developments. (I'm not fond of new developments! LOL!) I love this photo, Kitty! Gorgeous light, gorgeous color! #7011320

Kitty, beautiful color and lighting in the capture of this lovely subject; I've had a lot of medical challenges most of my life so I celebrate every wrinkle, grateful that I lived long enough to get them!!! :) I'm very grateful but admit that I do avoid mirrors and always stay on the back side of the camera!! #7011439

Who's speaking here, Kitty? ... You or the flower? In any case, I don't want to get old and wrinkled! Unfortunately, there's no way to reverse the aging process. Someone should invent an iron FOR SKIN that will just press our wrinkles away! Ha! Ha! :D
Beautiful, beautiful capture, Kitty! Love everything about it ... even the wrinkles! :) #7012705
