I love taking pictures of flowers and my favorites are geraniums. The very first one is a close-up of flowers from a tree in Jordan they call a "Crazy Tree". You stick it in the ground, give it water and it grows like crazy. They're very prolific in the parched desert landscape of Israel and Jordan. It's very similar to our Mimosa tree. The 2nd one is a cluster of flowers from a Hoya plant. The flowers look like candy when they blossom and smell divine. The last three are from Israel - from a courtyard in the Citadel -David's tomb and from the Garden Tomb. Someday I'd love to get a macro lens so I can get the super close-up shots!
