Floral
I love how bright and bold this flower is, I'm not sure when I actually took this photo but it's one of my favourites.
I've recently made this into a new greeting card along with a few other floral designs.

It's the start of the school holidays for the girls, now they have 7 weeks holiday.
I miss those long summers.
This photo was shot on the Pixel 2 phone in portrait mode. If you've never used it for flowers before then give it a go, it works so well.

Today feels like a flower day.
It has been such a busy but enjoyable weekend. Over the past 4 days I've taken part in my first photography exhibition and it was brilliant but hard work.
So I need to sort a few things out, I've lots of ideas to plan and I think a few days off Instagram won't be such a bad thing.

It definitely feels like a flower day.
I love roses, they always look so delicate. We visited a rose garden at the weekend and it had so many different types and colours.

This wasn't meant to be the photo this week, I planned on something and that all went out the window when I damaged ligaments in my ankle on Monday. This has meant that walking has been a struggle so hiking for a beautiful landscape hasn't happened.
Instead, I set up a tripod, camera and tulip to at least take a photo I was happy with.

A break from the usual landscape photos today.
Instead a beautiful single flower for Mother's Day. It's been a while since I took a floral photo, this was shot using a Nikon D610.
I'm also hoping the vibrant colour welcomes in spring and says goodbye to winter.
