We had a good time at Arley Hall photographing flowers on Sunday. The bright overcast conditions were ideal. Here's an example:

Gorgeous colors and details, John! I like how the stem almost fades at the bottom.

Is it just my bleary eyes tonight, or is there some kind of silhouette at the tips of some of the petals (about 3 and 4, and 8 and 9 o'clock, if the flower were a clockface)?

Cheers!
Keith
