Two for Tuesday

Spotted on the grounds of Mission Soledad near Salinas, Ca.
Two Looks, One Rose

Two looks at the same rose in the Rose City. Just when I think I have taken enough images of roses I come across a blossom like this.
From the Garden

Sunflower from NE Portland and cucumber and squash from our garden.
Flowers from NE Portland
Thought I would take a break from posting the trip photos and post some from my few days in Portland this past week.

Hosta
Spotted in Sabin area of NE Portland.
Shades of Pink
Today I thought I would post some film images I scanned a couple of years ago. These images were taken with my Minolta X-700.
Flower Globe
I really don’t know the name of this plant. Was captured in the Sabin area of Portland from someone’s yard I walked past.
Clematis
One more look at Carol’s clematis.
A Closer Look
Macro view of one of Carol’s clematis.
Carol’s Flowers
My daughter’s neighbor, Carol, has a really pretty clematis vine that I wish I could grow. She explained her pruning technique to me last week, but I have had no luck with this type of clematis to date. They all die after I prune.

Jacob Cline #2
Tomorrow I plan to post some of the images I shot while in Portland and elsewhere last week. For now, here is another look at the Jacob Cline.
Monarda ‘Jacob Cline’
Interesting flower just blooming in one of our planter boxes. When I bought the seeds I didn’t notice how tall it would get when mature. Seems like it is at least three feet high right now.
