It's my mum's 70th birthday next month and I want to make her a special card from a flower picture I have taken in my garden. Unfortunately, I always give her the best of each year, so I had to go and take new ones which she hasn't seen before! Please help me make my choice, as I find it very difficult! Here are the pictures: 1 Shasta daisy  2 Pink old English roses  3 Yellow old English rose  4 Pink astrantia 1  5 Pink astrantia 2  6 White astrantia  7 Geraniums  8 Foxglove  |

I especially love the daisy picture, it's a fantastic picture, so crisp. But I am a bit biased as they are one of my favourite flowers! Pink astrantia 1 and Yellow old English rose would be my next choices, but they're all beautiful, I can almost smell them...!

I like the Geraniums, but the Pink astrantia 1 comes second I think. Then probably the yellow rose.

I love the roses but as my pinks are all in full bloom now as well I opted for the pink one. I love the detail in that picture.

I voted and then came down to post, and I am the same as newpig, pink roses for sure! If there was a white rose I would have chosen that above the pink one, but pink is beautiful! Great photos yodelpig!

I have white roses, but my mum has a better picture already than I could take.

I voted yellow rose; but everytime I look at the pics, I'm tempted to re-cast my vote to either the Shasta daisy(mainly 'cos of the name lol) or the pink rose. Number four is nice, too.

Yodelpig, all of your photos are amazing, you must have a great camera, what camera do you have? I also like the White astrantia picture because of the bee on the flower!

everytime I look at the pics, I'm tempted to re-cast my vote to the Shasta daisy. Oh go on, do it! (Yes, there was some selective editing of sentence there...!) Don't let the Witches of Eastwick (aka Donna and Lesa) win! |

Don't let the Witches of Eastwick (aka Donna and Lesa) win! Too late! Pink roses have won. Wish I had voted Shasta now, then it would have been a tie! Plus I'm missing my boy. |
