I have been lucky enough to have lots of fields of opium poppies locally and I've been able to spend time sitting in the sunshine photographing these beautiful flowers. Having said that I will admit they have challenged me but I'm not sure why!! I think it's partly because I really don't like the colour pink but I find them soooo beautiful!

Like many at this time of year usually we would be thinking about a summer trip somewhere, for that's very often the mountains. This year who knows whether we will get to travel but I am so lucky to have lots of pictures, many of them still unsorted/processed, to look back on and enjoy and I know the mountains will still be there waiting for us.

It's poppy time and who can resist them?! I have been so lucky this year with fields of both the wild red and the pink opium poppies nearby so I've had the chance to make several trips out to make pictures, which means I've got heaps of poppy pictures!!! Thought I'd start with an image of the classic red poppy. I'll share more when I've had a sort through.


Astrantias!

I remember the first time I saw Astrantia flowers, I was up a mountain in Switzerland and there were lots dotted along a path. I was captivated by them, certainly couldn't believe they were wild flowers!!! The shape is just so amazing and they are so delicate and complicated.... And now I have some in my garden and this year they have flowered better than ever. Next step, propagating so I can have a carpet... Oh, and perhaps to get some red ones too!

Recently I've loved finding quiet secret spots next to woodland streams and pools. Sitting by the water watching the surface constantly changing is totally hypnotic, so relaxing.
