First it started with seeing everything around me as a potential post. Then the craziest thing happened...I started going places with the sole intent of getting some great pictures to share with you. These have ranged from butterfly houses, to sculpture parks, botanical gardens to pulling off the road when something caught my eye.

Red Is my favorite color , always love how it sticks it in everything . I love roses as well , planted them in my garden back home

That's one of the top reasons I look forward to finally getting a house...being able to garden. I've been in apartments for a long time.

First I want to wish you a happy 2018! Nice pictures you took there! Im just new to steemit but also already started to take some more pictures haha and thanks for posting the link to the colorchallenge. I saw this tag a lot but didnt know exactly what it was. Lets hope 2018 will be full of wonderful pictures of us both!!

Beautiful shots! That third pic. You don't happen to know the name of those flowers do you? I've shot them a few times in both red and white, and never yet found the name.

Thank you!!
I wish I could tell you what they were. Unfortunately the park they were at didn't have any sort of identification for them. I tried doing a reverse image search on google but it just came back with Frangipani or Plumeria, but neither of those seemed to match, since those had 5 petals.

I'll let you know if I'm able to find anyone to tell us what this species is though. :)

It is amazing how this site does motivate one to get out and look for things to photograph. And write about. It is either one of two ways for me. Take an image and then write about it from the idea it invokes. Or have an idea, and search around for an image(s) to support it. Either way, the process is fascinating, and SO much fun. Enjoyed the photos, very nice and colorful. The red and green are so contrasting.

dazzling colors :)
Photographing flowers can be one of the hardest things to do. I have deep respect for any photographer who manages to do it well

I'm guilty of doing the same thing now! Ever since I started using Steemit, wherever I am I just have have the thought in the back of my head "hmm that looks like it could be a good picture!". Now I'm taking pictures of all my friends animals lol

Hehe...Steemit does some amazing things to us! I will admit that 95% of all my pics were of my cat before..hence why I have so many to include in my 'obligatory kitty pic.' Lol

Glad you have enough pics to show us a Kitty nearly every post lol!

magnificent photography!... and i'm waiting for steem chat contest..

Thank you!!
I'm still recouping from my holiday festivities, so needed a couple days off. But I plan to be running another trivia challenge tomorrow evening (for Central US Time zone.) :)

Happy New Year.
