This is a bit different; I wend and visited 4 garden centres in the area and took some pictures there in addition to some I’ve taken from my own garden. I hope you enjoy them.
Have a wonderful (and uneventful and peaceful) Friday!

Well, if I ever needed a Friday video, it’s today, and you certainly came through again. I am always struck with how you put it together and how you balance a flower in a picture or pan a plant or flower. What beautiful pictures. The flowers are just magnificent. I like the opening with the pictures rotating; no idea how you did that, but the effect is awesome.
While I really am not a fan of lawn ornaments, I gotta say those three frogs are so stupid they are cool and really struck my fancy.
As always, thank you so much.
That would be the magic of iMovie! Quite a simple matter actually of just selecting a theme and pressing go. After that you just stack the pictures in the order you want, tweak the settings (in iPhoto) slap on the audio track you want and off you go!
It is just too simple!
I am really glad that you enjoy them M. I can tell you that I really do enjoy taking those pictures and producing the videos too.
Usually I just tell one of my kids what I want, and they’ll put something together. Pleading computer ignorance seems to work pretty well on them, but then they do enjoy doing it like most kids do these days. I’ll have to look into the imovie for some of the civic groups I volunteer for. They’ll think I’m a genius.
I really do enjoy the Friday videos as well as your pictures; most of them are art as far as I’m concerned.
Shucks… thanks!
(I’m actually discussing mounting a photography exhibition with one of the galleries here. Maybe it will happen this year, with luck.)
I really like the cards of flowers in the beginning. They look so picturesque.
The buddist garden is amazing. So hard for me to believe it was in Bahrain. The garden is so green, balanced and serene.
Thankyou, the Friday Slideshow always feeds my soul.
God really did amazing things for us when he created nature.
Blessings Mahmood to you and your family. 🙂
Very nice, It helped to look at as I got ready for work.

Thanks all! 😳
Thank you for the slide show it is beautiful but Friday the 13th is bad luck trust me i lost a huge sum of money yesterday.
Ah well, that happens, I hope you recoup it soon and it wasn’t wasted on gambling or that sort of thing.
Mahmood, you did it again. Thank you for the respite from my non top packing. Movers come monday for my move to Sandinavia. My whole house is boxes filled and and open to see if I can stuff anymore in them. I’m so tired. I’m almost done, final push tonight, tomorrow deal with paperwork.
*that should be non STOP packing.
