365 Days of Photos - Day 4

Hello everyone, how are you all doing? I was MIA yesterday, just never got on the website. I usually at least check in, but it was a busy day. Because of that, I missed sharing a photo yesterday - so I am a bit behind. Here is my next photo in the series though - a flower. I don't know much about flowers (even though my grandmother worked in a greenhouse, and had a huge garden herself) but I did use google lens to help me out. So, I believe this is a Zinnia flower. If you know flowers, you can tell me if google was correct. I have enjoyed taking photos of flowers, just as much as the sunsets, rivers, mountains, etc... What do you think of the photo? Do you like these flowers? What is your favorite? I'll have more flowers to share in the future too, just need to edit all my photos.

It may be a zinnia, because they come in so many varieties. Perhaps someone with more gardening experience can tell you for sure. My zinnias are more ruffled. It is a beautiful flower and color, no matter what it is.

@MommyOfEli2013 My son told me, because I kept calling him to come over to find out what the names of flowers were. Look online for a free one if you’re interested. It does work pretty well.

They look like cosmos flower. I love it. I suddenly feel the need to join challenges as well. I should probably get back to photography.

I guess they do have a similarity in style...I do know cosmos. You can join if you would like! Or making your own is always fun too.

Hey, it's beautiful, that's my extent of flower knowledge. And, to me, that's all that matters.

Thank you. I am not sure I know what those ones are. But, I don't know the names of flowers too well, unless it like a rose, tulip, etc.
