Thing 6: Photo Sharing with Flickr
















Create a post on your blog about one of the photos you downloaded. Why did you choose a particular photo? What is it about the photo that you found interesting?





A few years ago I had never heard of Plumeria. Then, on a special anniversary my husband bought a Plumeria scented candle to use when we visited a romantic bed and breakfast. Silly me, I thought it was some made up scent from Bath & Body. Just this past Spring, I was looking for pictures of flowers to download for a profile on a social network site and found these incredibly beautiful flowers. I found out that the Plumeria is the Hawaiian flower used to make leis. They are absolutely beautiful and now my favorite flower. I found it very interesting that they come in so many colors and varieties. It wasn’t until I saw all the pictures on Flicker that I realized that!

  1. They are indeed very beautiful flowers! Have you made a trip to Hawaii? Be sure to see the other islands as well. Many of these flowers are actually grown in the Polynesian islands.

  3. These are beautiful pictures of Plumeria. I had never heard the name either. The photos you shared make me want to visit Hawaii while airfare is still reasonable.
