Smiling in silence,
Greeting in silence,
It’s the colors that break the silence,
Shouting and laughing,
Drawing each attention to come near.

It seems to me that there’s a lot of shadow in the “orchards” pictures (I’m not sure if that’s exactly what they’re called T.T)…If only they could be brighter…Nevertheless I love the vibrant colors. I saw your post at the end of a busy day… and I really appreciate the feeling of refreshing it gave me.
February 22, 2012 at 18:46
I’m glad they can soothe your feeling at the end of your day 😀
It was very late in the afternoon (almost evening) and quite cloudy, so that’s why it was dark.
But I loved how the colors stood out among the others in that cloudy late afternoon…
February 21, 2012 at 23:55
So pretty. Love the shot with the two yellow flowers.
February 22, 2012 at 18:43

from the flowers you took picture of, I can smell that you are from South East Asia. And then, your blog name, “Steam Rice”.. I don’t have to doubt any more. Congrats on the Freshly Pressed.

Thanks… yes, I fall in love with poetry and write some simple poems 🙂
February 22, 2012 at 04:41
A photographic mood conveyed. Much appreciated. Peace and best wishes. Here we have an unusually balmy winter but bad news because no maple syrup and our flowers and trees bud too early here in upstate New York. I like the way your background celery colored and bamboo background almost disappears against your photographic content which pops out.
February 22, 2012 at 18:28
I appreciate your detailed comment, Jill 😀
Hope that spring comes soon to you!
February 22, 2012 at 05:17

Beautiful pics! Thanks for sharing! The 6th & 7th pics are actually the flower I’m named after…I think (sounds weird, but true). 🙂
February 22, 2012 at 18:16
Thanks! Really? That’s wonderful. My sister-in-law is named after Amarylis. So what’s your full name? 😀
February 24, 2012 at 01:33
My full name in Vietnamese is Nguyen Huynh-Anh (last followed by combo of first & middle). I think the flower is called “hoa huynh” or “hoa huynh anh/hoang anh” in Vietnamese. My dad told me..hehe.
February 25, 2012 at 12:25
wow! hahaha I have a vietnamese-american friend whose middle name is Thui, she said it means flower. SO, whom should I call you? Huynh-Anh?
February 27, 2012 at 17:38
Hehe…yes, Huynh-Anh! Some people just call me “Anh” though! 🙂
February 22, 2012 at 08:27
Your ‘eye’ captures with delight
The belly laughs of the universe
Exploding colour
From lush green backgrounds.
Abundant, fecund, glorious.
