Des pivoines en pleine nature, oh merveille... peut-être un ancien jardin ? bonne soirée Andy.

Photo, paysage, couleurs et premier plan superbes. Nicole.

Nice shot, Andy, I like the foreground detail!

Gudrun,
Dominique,
Thank you both!

So beautiful! It looks a simple matter to take such a landscape photo, but I know it's not. It takes a talented eye (I know because I've tried so many times and never got anything like the scene I had tried to capture).

I discard 95% of what I take, I take with me my mobile phone (motorola E) and a Fuji finepix pocket digital. I don't posses anything else - apart from my old Pentax ME from the late 70s and early 80s - and it hasn't been used since 1986 (A few pics from the Pentax are here but I seem to have lost most of those slides)

fantastic compo

Eine fantastische Bildgestaltung mit den Pfingstrosen im Vordergrund, Andy.
Wachsen die Pfingstrosen dort wild?
Freundliche Grüße und eine gute Woche

Yes, wild and in quite a few spots around here.

Lovely peonies against this superb mountain landscape, Andy !!

A good landscape shot for my taste! =)

I like portrait (vertical) images where are plenty to see from foreground to background.

Nice and colourful, Andy !

Thank you all!

Great colours and very effective framing Andy.

Great contrast between the rocks and the foliage. The flowers really stand out.

Am Naturstandort habe ich Päonien noch nie gesehen. Eine wunderbare Aufnahme, - die Blütenfarbe zum Gipfelgrau.

Hi Andy,

Peonies, pleasantly plump, as the rhyme goes..
Very well taken in a beautiful setting!

Best Wishes
Peter

Thank you, Peter.
On Wednesday I am going to walk UNDER those mountains!
(There is a disused railway line tunnel and our walking group is going to give it a go. 3km and I have yet to buy a torch!!!). Our e-mailed instructions were that on no account should this he attempted by anyone with claustrophobia!
I will see what I can do with photo evidence and post it in a few days time (I hope!).
All best wishes,
Andy
ps. I don't know this peony rhyme .. do you have any more?

amelie,

A beautiful view, nice flower colour!

This is also a great place and picture Andy. I love the pink dots in front of them.

Best wishes, Christien.

These are peonies, Fred. They are not roses.
Sorry, I don't know any other names!

Thank you, Martin!
