Let me know which you prefer and why.
Pens: It’s Wordless Wednesday, and I must resist praise about the deliciously scrumptious geranium. Since I must hold my pen, so to speak, I will await another post to commend Mother Nature’s beauty that blooms in my sunny kitchen throughout the winter.
The Back Story: When I discovered Wordless Wednesday, the notion that my blog, which focuses on lens and pens, would occasionally go wordless was not necessarily a conflict. For me, photography has always been about its visual language. So here I am with my tenth submission (first was on 19 February 2013), and (yes), still creating words.
Note: As always I welcome comments about this post or any part of my blog.

Happy Wordless Wednesday and thanks for the Pingback.
I love them both equally. 🙂
Jo, thanks.
Absolutely stunning! I like both! Slowly catching up again on my blog reading! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, welcome back. Hope to hear more about your memorable trip.
nice shots! very creative! 🙂
Happy Wordless Wednesday! My entry is here.
Thank you for your comment and visit.
How can you ask us to choose between those two – both super shots.
Malc, do you plant geraniums? I bring them inside in the winter, and they honor me through the grey days. Thanks.

That’s for the Pingback.
I had to look at this 3 times in denial. I plant them every year. WOW? Hairy Geraniums??
Yes, I read that the scented ones are even hairier. Thanks.
I like the first photo best but only because I am fascinated by the hairs on the geranium. Makes me think of the silken threads that form my blog title. I had no idea I could find some of them on a geranium.
I was surprised and fascinated.
Number two for the colour 🙂
Thanks, they were beginning to bloom and I could not resist charm and delicacy.
How can I prefer one over the other? each one lives and it is technically perfect. They even complement each other. I can only admire your choices as I am sure that there are many more images…
Thank you, geraniums melt my heart.
I gotta ask…where do the hairs come from?
Geraniums do have tiny hairs on their stems, and they appeared with my macro lens.
I like the bottom image-there is a simplicity about the color and composition that really pull the viewer in-this is wonderful!
Thank you, geraniums are delicate flowers that have become one of my favorite.
