The blurred background shows the borage in beautiful detail. It's a lovely plant to photograph with the pretty blue flower and red stems....and not forgetting the bee! Superb!!

Have a good new week Keith. It's raining here! At least it will bring some colour back to the lawns.

Glad you like it Rosa............and thanks for your kind comments.

We had a brief shower of rain yesterday, but nothing that would do any good :-(

Bees love borage! But so do black flies. I didn't have a plant that didn't eventually succumb to the pests!
Fine shot here and just very summery!

Thanks Andy..............I've had very few black flies in my garden this year, which is unusual.

Glad you like the shot!

Thank you very much Jan.

We've pulled all ours up...........my wife has an allergic reaction to the hairs, even if she just brushes against them. Luckily our next door neighbour has loads!
