Myra here.

I am glad to join Frizztext’s A-Z Photo Story Challenge this week with V is for Violets. These photographs are taken from the Cloud Forest and Flower Dome here at the Singapore Gardens by the Bay. I love this particular shade. Aside from being a symbol of feminism, there is a richness and a texture to violets that resonate with me.

    Perfect entry for the challenge ‘V’ ….
    Ironically, I should have thought to post violet as my bedroom is violet.
    Sometimes. things can be right in front of us and we miss them.
    Nice selection of photos !!!
