  1. I saw the duck! It took me a minute, but then the image formed and now I can't "unsee" it. Very cool optical illusion. I love your pictures and thank you for doing this every week. You make my day every Friday because my life is not so happy right now but I can "visit" Disneyland once a week through you. I could never tell you how much that means to me sometimes.

    1. I didn't realize the "duck" in the flowers until I started going through the pictures on my computer. And when I saw those flowers, the "duck" instantly appeared to me. And just like you, once I saw it, I couldn't unsee it. ha ha

      Thanks for stopping by to check out the pictures. I am glad you enjoy them :)
