Mellow Yellow Monday #88 - Flower Near the Golden Gate - September 27, 2010


Mellow Yellow Monday #88 - Flower Near the Golden Gate - September 27, 2010

When a friend was visiting last week, I took her out sightseeing in our unbelievably
beautiful weather.  On the Marin side of the Golden Gate, from the observation area, we
got amazing views of San Francisco, without a bit of fog.  This little yellow flower ( or,
maybe, it's actually a weed ) caught my eye perched against the blue of the Pacific
Ocean.



I am participating in Mellow Yellow Monday!
Join in the fun.

  10. My daughter always says "it doesn't count as a weed if it is beautiful". Your flower definitely fits into the beautiful category.

    I agree with you that the ocean made a great backdrop for this flower.

    I think that yellow flower was a weed but it was still lovely.

    I know your Canaries are filled with so many beautiful things. I look at photographs online. You need to get out there with your camera and share them with us.

    That flower was growing in a pretty inhospitable rocky spot on the hillside.

    I like your daughter's philosophy - there are so many beautiful weed's out there!
