These are in a large pot in my front garden.

Multiple, In the Garden, Green, Lines, Stripes or Ridges, Repetition, Seed Head, Five or more.

The detail captured is absolutely amazing Keith. Do you use a tripod, or just have a steady hand!? I almost didn't bother to look full screen as it surely couldn't look any better!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Keith Burton club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thanks for your kind words Rosa.........always appreciated.

I do use a tripod sometimes, but this particular one was hand held. Olympus cameras have very effective image stabilisation and the lens I used (my favourite) balances well with this camera.

Have a lovely weekend.

Sehr schön zeigst du die Samenkapseln nach der Blüte! Leider ist die Agapanthus nicht winterfest, so dass man sie im Topf halten muss.

Glad you like this one Wilhelm. Yes, this one will have to be protected over the winter.

I think it's a wonderful shot, Keith and one where I don't think I would have had the imagination to see the photographic potential. But you did and the result is stunning!

Thank you Isabel. Glad you approve.

It's a little early to collect the seeds yet.........I cracked a pod open the other day and they're still white and soft inside.
