Cliff, this thread has opened my eyes to how plants can be photographed - one of your pictures of an iris earlier on could almost be a painting! I shall try and look at plants in a new way. I remember a recent photo of yours of a Cypripedium that had won the Farrer medal at one of the AGS Shows, which also struck me for its simple beauty. I have always enjoyed photographing plants but generally in a more botanical way, or as groupings in the garden. I shall try to be a bit more adventurous from now on!

Many thanks Tim ... this topic seems to have been ignored for a while ... I hope this aquilegia might initiate a revival?

One for Cliff - Cornus 'Porlock', turning from white to having red edges to the petals, a second floral display from the same shrub.

Lovely images Paddy.

Perhaps my favourite image (amended obviously) from our Dolomite trip in 2009 ...

Like the pictures Cliff, especially the monochrome one.

You've been playing with HDR have you?

Tinkering, Peter ... just tinkering!   :D
Some nice effects, but only with selected images. Quite easy to over egg the pudding I would imagine!
