It’s habit now that I take my phone with me when I take the dog out on my own. You never know when I might need to make a call…………… or take a picture!
Gardens around us are a blaze of colour just now, and in some instances the noise of the bees in the flowers is overwhelming.
We had some glorious blooms on our In Loving Memory and Ancient Mariner rose bushes last month but still not a single bud on the yellow Peace.
It was a beautiful morning when I walked Maggie. The day started late again as I went back to sleep after letting her out at 6.30, then had a lovely hot shower which was heaven on my back as I was really stiff when I woke up.
Although it was gone 10am, I saw only one other dog walker and exchanged good mornings as I didn’t recognise him, so he could be a visitor.
I have been meaning to take pictures of some of the flowers I pass on The Avenue, and today was it.
These were all taken with my phone, and I am really pleased with some of them. I even got a shot of a bee busy working away.
The roses were in one garden, the tall purple flowers (hollyhocks?) in another and the hydrangeas in a third.
In contrast, the picture I took of the yellow rose in the park was not good at all!
Beautiful pictures.
The ones of the tall flowers came out really well!
the tall purple ones look like (what we call) rose of sharon. Hollyhocks have one extremely tall stem with multiple flowers encircling the stem.
I shall ask the house owner when I see them. Thanks Suze.
all kinds of blossoms to brighten the day – talk about right blazing glories 🙂
Beautiful, and they actually came out!
beautifully captured Di – nicely done 🙂
Thanks Rory. I’ve just got to work out how to see the damn screen and what I’m trying to photograph when the sun’s out! I got a lovely picture of Hub’s joggers encased backside the other day instead of a duckling!
Ha ha 🙂
