Texture Tuesday - Orange

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today over at Kim's Texture Tuesday our guidelines this week were to use at least one layer of any of her textures and to focus on the color orange.  I have some great fall holiday orange shots in my vast collection of photos but I just couldn't go there quite yet.  I'm still hanging onto the carefree days of summer, even though we are all back in school and the weather seems to be changing!  I took the following images earlier this summer.  You can see some of the originals here.  I love this little butterfly weed flower.  It is bright and cheerful and screams summer to me!  I used just one layer of Kim's water stained frame on each image on soft light.  I love the dreamy quality the texture adds to my pictures.

Peace!
