What better way to start a New Year than with a photo of new life

This succulent plant forms little baby plants on the tip of its long leaves. 

This plant is restricted to a pot as it would probably get very invasive when planted in the garden

The flower bud that I posted about on 16 November 2014 has finally opened! It has produced an elongated bunch of tiny buds that open to expose a rich pink little flower with dainty yellow stamens. 

The first little flower in all its glory while the stamens have started protruding from the others

All eyes on 2015!

It has taken me ages to sift through the hundreds of photos that I have taken since April 2014.

This was the first step towards fulfilling my New Year's Resolution.

It also took a two day 'photo trip' and very late nights to do all of 47 new postings on the blog. 

Phew!!  I will NOT let this happen again.  

Although a daily post is not part of my resolution I will post on a regular basis.

Wishing all who sees this, a wonderful 2015. As my friend Brenda put it:

May you have enough!

CMR Beetles are great colourful subjects to photograph but they do so much damage!
