The Many Different Shades of Pink Zinnia


I'm going to continue the many different shades of pink rose with this post since I have many different tones and shapes of pink zinnia flowers! Most of the petals were not round or open as we normally see. They came as a jolly surprise to me.


This baby pink color zinnia was my favorite because of its shape. It looked like sun burst with its petal. I don't know what happened, but I only had one pink zinnia with full round petals in the bottom left corner in the photo below.


All of these photos were taken with my cell phone camera as an experiment! I'm still learning about it as I go, but the battery lasted only for 3 to 4 hours though! I think so far it is not a bad backup device.

Amazing what you can do with a cell phone these days! Zinnias are among my summer favorite blooms.

One of my favorite flowers. I did not have any this year as the heat has killed everything.

they are just beautiful. I use my smart phone for all my photos these days, they say plain digital cameras are going out of style!

It looks like your cell phone camera is a success. You got very good pictures.

Icy, what strikingly detailed shots for a cell phone. Very nice and such beautiful colors. It's fun testing out the camera phone. I've been doing that with mine as well and like you, I'm happy to have a backup for my camera.

My mother's favorite flowers were zinnias. She used the flowers from her garden to make flower arrangements and she loved the versatility of color and size that she got from zinnias.

Very nice selections. I have 8 kinds in my yard this year, and always plant lots.It was fun going through a few more blogs.

Zinnias are what my daughter would call brave and outspoken. BTW, I just saw a photo exhibit where the camera was the iPhone. It was terrific.

Cell phone cameras have improved a lot. ;) I love the first one!

I like all the different shades of pink you captured Icy, each one is beautiful. Your cell phone did good, mine takes only so-so photos.
