Bordering on the Dark Side!

Thank you for your lovely comments Ulrich.
Sunday greetings.

Sublimes ces captures avec leurs belles couleurs et surtout pour le choix de l'angle de tir qui les met en évidence et en valeur... Merci pour ce superbe partage et bon dimanche.

Thank you so much Malik. I keep going outside to look at them :-))
Sunday greetings.

A beautiful floral display, Rosa. I love the colours and the very effective shallow depth of field. The way the flowers recede into the background, in your top photograph, is quite amazing. I hope you have a great Sunday. Cheers, Joe

Thank you so much for your kind comments Joe. I thought I might have got them in the wrong order height wise, but all worked out well! A quiet Sunday for me. I hope you are enjoying the day as well. Cheers, Rosa.

Another good tittle, and more good shots Rosa

Very kind of you Nick, thank you.
Sunday greetings.

Que du bonheur ce panel coloré, de jolis bouquets sur pied !+++++
Bon dimanche Rosa.

Thank you Jocelyne. It is a very full border, but seems to look okay!
Sunday greetings.

magnifique série mon amie ! bon dimanche et bisous ****************portez vous bien mon amie

Thank you very much dear Angelique. I hope you are enjoying a happy Sunday :))

These are wonderful Rosa...............I think the darker exposure has made the flowers stand out well - they almost glow against the green backgrounds. I think the rain helps too - it makes everything look clean and fresh.

The main image is beautifully exposed..........with perfect focus on the flower in the foreground and a gorgeous background. Very clever use of depth of field..

Likewise the image in the first PiP.............just brilliant! The anemones in the second PiP are also gorgeous!

First class photography.........some of your best flower images I think!

Oh...........a clever title too!

I have been trying different settings for the border Keith and the darker exposure shows them more as I see them. They look so pretty along the shed.

Thank you so much for your kind and much appreciated comments.
I hope you are enjoying a good and quiet Sunday.

A lovely floral series, beautifully taken with a narrow depth of field separating the flowers from the background. A great title too. :-)

Many thanks for your very kind comments George.
Sunday greetings.

Perfect DofF in your main shot and perfect composition too. The rudbekia stands out beautifully. I like the PiP with the close up and the bud and the water droplets. Lovely anemones too. Mine are just coming out.

Thank you very much Jean. I look forward to the anemones each year and their buds are so pretty. Hope you are having a good Sunday.

EXQUISITE flowers, Rosa !! Have a nice Sunday !

Thank you Marie-claire.
Happy Sunday!

Lovely series of floral images Rosa, Like the colours.

Thank you very much Roger.

Excellent composition and use of DOF. A good new week for you Rosalyn.

Thank you Maurice.
Hope you have a good week too.

A nice collection to brighten a dark boarder, your Japanese Anemones are more advanced than mine. I hope Monday is a good start to your week Rosalyn

Thank you Peter. A wet start to the week, but it's Weymouth with Sophie tomorrow, whatever the weather :-)) Hope your week goes well.

Hi Rosa

A very nice set of pictures!
You must have such a big and interesting garden!
Always different things for us to see
Flowers I do not even know the names of, but they look pretty anyway!


Best Wishes for the coming week
Peter

Hi Peter,
It's trial and error with me in the garden. I just keep trying to learn.
I have to keep a list of the names of many flowers, or I just forget...must be my age!!
Thank you for your very kind comments and I am pleased you like the pictures.
Take care & have a good week,
Rosa.

Buenas fotografías y preciosas flores. Vivir rodeado de esos colores y olores ha de ser un placer para los sentidos.

Thank you Jose. Yes it is a pleasure. I am looking out for plants to give more colour during the winter months...a work in progress!
