Before I get to Foto Finish this week, I wanted to thank all of you for the prayers and best wishes sent yesterday for my brother. My Mom reported yesterday that he's pretty much back to his normal growling bear self. All indications are that he'll be released from the hospital this morning. The doctors expect him to have a 100% recovery pretty quickly. So it's all good news on that front.
This week's Foto Finish is acutally supposed to be "My Garden". Well, being the black thumb that I am, I don't even attempt a garden. So I pulled an image from my Mom's garden.
I'm not sure what kind of flower this is, but Mom has an abundance of them every year. Her back yard is full of color and I love to sit out on the back porch in the summer and just take it all in.

That's a great photo!! I love the colors and the texture that it shows. This is the first year I've had a really good flower garden, and I love the colors and smells.
