A favourite rose
One of our favourite roses is Madame Alfred Carrière which has a delicate colour and a pleasant scent. An E-520/35mm shot converted from raw in RPP and then imported with a standard treatment into Aperture before sharpening.

Hoverfly and honeysuckle
I generally don’t have much luck with photographing bees, butterflies and the like. However, I seem to have been lucky when I noticed a hoverfly hanging around the honeysuckle in our gardden. It had just come into flower and it was a case of being at the right place at the right time with a [...]

Poppies
Still as part of the regain from yesterday’s fiasco, I am catching up on the pictures that I lost of the poppies. I do like the papery petals and blowsy nature of these big flowers. The top one was a shot from the E-520; the lower image from the GF1. Both images were essentially treated [...]

Spring Tricolour
I spotted these three trees, all in different colours, in the garden at Falkland Palace. Not quite red, white and blue – but it will keep the Italians happy: This was shot into the light, which gave some translucence to the colour of the leaves, but caused other problems. It was a E-520 shot and [...]

Field of Daisies
This is what happens if I don’t mow the lawn. It almost makes laziness seem like a virtue. This was a shot with a macro lens (Olympus’ 35mm), but with a larger depth of field than normal. The aim was to get a more three-dimensional view of the daisies stretching into the distance. This shot [...]

Bursting into bloom
Bluebells are now blooming prolifically. They are too good to ignore. This is an E-520 shot with the 35 mm macro lens. It is wide open, focused on the very tips of the flower also catching the tiny raindrops on the flower. Although the Olympus jpegs are about as good as it gets, this is [...]

Why we have April showers
After the unseasonable cold and then the unseasonable heat we have been settling back into more normal weather – cooler and showery. However irritating showers are at weekends, there is a reason for them, as this beautiful tulip shows: Another E-520/35 mm shot. Once again a OOC jpeg which has only been slightly tweaked: punch [...]

After the rain
It has been a day of showers here. I have become fascinated by the way water clings to the surface of flowers. Sometimes it forms distinct droplets and sometimes, as here, it almost seems to flow across the surface. This was an OOC jpeg E-520 shot with the 35mm macro lens at ISO 400. It [...]

Pansies
We were back in Falkland today, which is a really pretty village. They have one many prizes for their floral displays both locally and nationally and although spring is just getting under way they have started with a fine show of flowers. Here the complementary colours of the purple and yellow pansies were eye catching: [...]

Catkins
Not surprisingly there isn’t a great deal of fresh vegetation in the Alps at this time of year. The grass is still burned brown by the cold and flattened by the weight of the snow. However, in the valleys there are some catkins hanging from the trees and new buds forming. Spring is definitely on [...]
