    Thanks! To be honest, I do not know what the blueish colored flowers are. I was thinking Phlox, but then, I have't a clue. Anybody out ther know for sure?

    Periwinkle; you can't beat a word like that. Periwinkle is a fun word to say.

    I love the titles you give to each image. The use of the drop of white flower amonsgt the rich violet hues of the others is stunning.

    Thank you everyone!

    babooska, thanks - For my photo titles and captions, I usually type whatever pops into my head. Probably too much coffee/espresso.
