Color Challenge - Sunday Purple - Flower Selection


Late Summer Purple Flowers


On the way to Seaford today we called in at the garden centre. I was really surprised to see just how many flowers were still blooming given we're getting late into summer now.

I even remembered to make a note of the names of some of them although, alas, not the first one. 😂

Thanks to @kalemandra for the daily color challenge.

Sort:  

Very nice flowers. Purple is very pretty in these pictures. What does daily color challenge mean?

There is a daily colour challenge that has been running for a long time by @kalamandra.

You can post a different colour, as specified by the challenge, each day. Do a search on kalamandra or colorchallenge to find out more. 😊

I have read in a post by Dan Larrimer, one of Steemit cofounders that curation rewards can be increased both by timing and by increasing the amount you contribute to the rewards. I think this reference to “how much you contribute to the posts rewards” can mean two things:
1st the strength of your upvote in terms of Steempower and percentage of voting power used.
2nd the amount you contribute via BidBots. I think it may be mathematically possible to make your curation rewards greater by magnifying your contribution to the total rewards.
What do you think?
Thank you,
@shortsegments

I'm not sure what reference you are referring to @shortsegments when you say

I think this reference to “how much you contribute to the posts rewards”

Are you asking my advice about curation (which I'm not very good at) or did you post this comment on the wrong post? 😂

Beautiful photos @gillianpearce! Your first one reminds me of a type of Delphinium maybe :)

Thank you @lynncoyle1. I'm not sure about it being a Delphinium. It was a single flower and I think Delphiniums have stems with multiple flowers. I might well be wrong though! 😁

Nope you're right @gillianpearce! I was looking at it wrong 😅

Beautiful composition! focus really catches the eye nicely, stunning details! wonderful work.❤
