How impressive is the eloquence of silence!
Sweet indeed is the voice of woman—
the fire-side song of those, who are near and dear to us.

Sweet, the sounds of morning and evening twilight.
Sweet, the million melodies continually floating over the bosom of Nature.

But there are hours in the life of every man when the music of silence is dearer to him than all.

Very pretty photos! You can get a pretty close shot—those are pretty close to macros :-) The African daisy is particularly ice. Monochromatic flowers are interesting, but it just makes me want to know what colors they are! lol
Oh....I have secrets. Okay, I'll tell you. You pulled it out of me. :)
The first photo are white daffodils. The second photo are yellow crocus. The third are ORANGE petaled with pink insides african daisies.
I suppose to do macro I'd need a macro lens right? How close is a macro? I have an 18mm-55mm lens. ??
These are phenomenal. The daffodils are so dramatic. And yes, sometimes the sounds of silence are such a blessing, the sweetist of music. You find such beautiful poetry which coincides with your photography, I am always amazed. Really beautiful!
I'm so happy you understand me...:) And that you enjoy my photography and quotes. Thanks @birdsinparadise.

I've always had a thing for sepia toning. Adds a real quality to a BW image. Very nice indeed.
I as well @ddschteinn. I love the different tones for sepia too. Thanks for you comment, I appreciate it!
