I love those weed flowers. My lawn is always peppered with tiny yellow and white weed flowers at the start of spring... and they always make me think twice to mow the lawn. Nice photos.

Good camera...great photographer. It doesn't get any better than that unless, of course, the photographer cooks up some delicious Greek or Italian dishes:)
