February 2

Sugar Land, Texas

New stamps from the U.S. Post Office.
Quilled Love Hearts and Botanical Art.
I like pretty or historical stamps and follow the releases, but I don't collect/keep the stamps.
I use them.

It's a dying art. The bottom has fallen out of demand for postal services down here so badly that Australia Post recently introduced a "two speed" system. One which costs more and still does next day delivery, and one that costs less but has delivery in 2 or 3 business days. Eventually (for relatively near values of "eventually") these stamps will only appear in museums and in shots like this one.

They certainly make a letter nicer to receive! Great idea to photograph them, and well done with a good perspective. V.
