have you ever smelled
a mullein flower
it's scent is guaranteed
to make something inside
swirl and twirl
with a need to lean in close
for another inhalation

Incredible macros, very clear!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen an old or new barn on your blog, but if you like photographing them, come join my new Tuesday meme opening Monday evenings called 'Old Barns'. I'd love to see some from Montana!
I enjoy looking at your blog - Yor have many very good photos. Well done
ReplyDeleteNo, but I will the next time I see one!
ReplyDeleteChe belli questi fiori in macro !
ReplyDeletePeccato non poterne sentire anche il profumo !
Buona serata :)
Myriam
I can only imagine!
ReplyDeleteHi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteMissed you yesterday at SS! I've never heard of this flower but it is just gorgeous! Went on a hour and a half hike with my 11 yr old son yesterday and thought of you as we examined the myriad kinds of mushrooms on the trail.
Have a wonderful week!

I'm not familiar with flower, but I will certainly check it out the first chance I get.
ReplyDeleteI do not know this flower but now because of your close-up photo I think I know it…intimately.
ReplyDeleteHi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteI absolutely have no idea what that plant is ... I don't know that I have ever seen one! It truly is beautiful though ~ the way you have shown it with your camera and your words!
Best wishes,
Barbara
The glory is in the detail. So gorgeous! I can almost smell it from here.
ReplyDeleteWow.. it sure is a beautiful photo but no, I'm not familiar with the flower.
ReplyDeleteI just love Mullien's fuzy leafs! I know I have smelled their flowers before, but I can not recall the scent at this time. I will have to search for one again!
ReplyDeleteI bet many people have missed the beauty of this lovely plant because it is thought of as a weed. Lovely capture!
I don´t think I have seen this flower, but your shot is excellent. :)
ReplyDeleteSo warm and fuzzy...I can almost smell it!
ReplyDeletegreat texture in your photos!
ReplyDeleteI love it!
wow!
ReplyDeletebeautiful photos!
That top one Tammie is absolutely amazing! Love that pop of yellow! So cheery!
ReplyDeleteOooo i've never smelled one..but now i want to :o)
ReplyDeletethese photos are just amazing, infact your pics never cease to amaze me..there is so much life, still, in your images.
when i was looking up poultices for various things recently i came across some info on old medicinal uses of mullein. apparently a poultice of the leaves steeped in vinegar and water soothes inflammed and painful skin conditions. and also that the thick soft leaves were used to line the shoes of many poorer folks, to provide extra warmth during the winter months.

Oh to see the fuzz! Love the fuzz on flowers! Amazing how many flowers are still out!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos--I am sure I caught a whiff of fragrance as the picture scrolled up across the page.
ReplyDeleteWow--these photos fill my eyes, sweet Friend. Mmmmm...
~i can smell it now lingering throughteh air...such a vibrant flower and beautiful photos you have taken...wishing you well and blessings upon you always~
ReplyDeleteJust your description sounds intoxicating! Beautiful photo! I wish I could lean in to take a little sniff. :) Theresa
ReplyDeleteSuperb details and color!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful macro shots of lovely flower.
ReplyDeleteI went back to the mountain wwhere I saw the mullien plant, it has become a very small plant, and I don't think there were flowers.

Thank for yours.
The air, redolently streaked with Mullein. Poetic, indeed.
ReplyDeleteI never knew this flower existed until you brought it to life in image and words! :)
ReplyDeleteI have never smell these, i should look if i can find it in Mallorca, cause now i really want to knoe how smells!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had. The smell of sagebrush from my recent trip to the PNW is still lingering all around me. I hope you are well!
ReplyDeleteTammie dear, as always, you have just shown me another unfamiliar wonder of nature... It's amazing that a flower so little could send out such wondrous fragrance.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're well and happy.

ReplyDelete...oh my gosh. These photos are gorgeous, and I love your poem too.
ReplyDeletepretty fragrance! quite interesting macro shots...
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking pictures Tammie, they remind me of the summer sun xJ
ReplyDeleteYou capture Mullein exquisitely Tammie. The light is golden sketching the textures and movement in this magnificent plant. Tiny florets within a tall healing being. Lovely!! ;>)
ReplyDeleteWow, you see beauty in such minute detail.
