I tend to be drawn to the cooler colors also, but my 'heart' smiles when I see some orange California poppies on the roadside or the first yellow daffodils of the year! LOVE that blue poppy--I've never seen a blue poppy before.

I'm so glad that you edged out of your color palette comfort zone and chose some warm-toned subjects. And the last one really gave me a giggle. That poppy knows how to stand out in a crowd!

I "tolerate" the hotter colours. lol Love all your photos but I'm in love with the Himalayan Blue poppy. I had one in my garden once- kept it going till its second year when it bloomed. Then it was gone. Our zone is too harsh/cold, I guess. If I lived near Butchart Gardens I'd be there every week. LOVE that place. You are so lucky to live handy.
