A sunny but humid day here, still a pleasant change from the cold of late. The variable light was quite nice for these pictures, though I used flash on the Oxlips to lift them a little.

Thanks as ever to The Children's Mother for helping identify the plants properly and dig out the latin names!
Very nice. I could never understand why professionals preferred to photograph gardens in shade rather than bright sunshine but your pics illustrate the power of the deeper background.
ReplyDeletelovely...i wonder how different the flowers are over there in your neck of the woods. i've only just started photographing them and i have no clue what most are.
ReplyDeletecool - all the flowers are a bit slow this year on skye - even the swallows were ten days late
