Photo of the Day - Keep Your Pansies On.
July 19th, 2008 Categories: Photo of the Day
Early yesterday morning I drove to the beautiful Cold Mountain development in Waynesville, North Carolina, to take pictures for an upcoming article. Not only do they have a spectacular garden of voluptuous, fresh vegetables and fruits, they planted some beautiful flowers. The morning dew on the pansies sparkled in the early morning sunlight, and caught my eye.
