Bubbles and diamonds
<center>What can I say... they are pretty much irresistible. Especially seen though the camera lens.</center>

<center>I have this violet standing on my kitchen table. So I see it every day. It blooms few times a year and I am so used to see the flowers that I didn't even think of shooting it. It became more common and nothing with *wow* factor.</center>

<center>And then I moved it to a different spot and when the sun came out... 
lets say I found the *wow* again!
All that sparkle and the glitter on the petals. It is just so amazing. The very common **African Violet** is a precious diamond now. </center>

<center>Look at that bubbly texture! You cannot feel it under your fingers or even see. The petals are just very thin and get bruised easily.</center>

<center>The colour on the photos came out a bit too pink. It is more pale red. Very unusual. 
Now I just have to make sure my cat doesn't eat them. She tends to sneak around and bite off the flowers when they open. 
The Violets must taste really good!</center>
