Bougainvillea
This is one from ages ago (10 years to be exact!). I find going back to my older pictures and re-processing them a source of great satisfaction. Also a useful activity on days when getting outside to take new photos is impractical or impossible (day job etc)..

Still life – HDR
With the weather going from bad to worse here in the UK, the scope for outdoor photography has been limited. I therefore, took to an indoor experiment using a bunch of flowers under natural lighting. Both pictures are from 3-shot bracketed exposures at -2, 0 and +2 at f/3.2 1/40, 1/1o and 0.4 second exposures. Merged in Photomatix Pro. I would love to hear from you!!
Fat-Legs and Doves-Foot!!
Not the cast of an improbable movie, but a photograph of a fat legged beetle (Flower Beetle/Oedemera nobilis) on a Doves-Foot Cranesbill flower (Geranium molle)!
Anatomy of a Gerbera..
Gerberas are members of the genus Asteraceae, that include daisies and sunflowers. They are named after the german botanist Traugott Gerber.
