In my garden – late summer shots
September 19, 2011
Having done a photography course at the V&A I came home to play around with my macro lens in my garden. Here are some late summer shots taken last month.
Bee on Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Goldsturm'
The bed that I dug and planted in spring last year
Gaura lindheimeri Karalee White
Foeniculum vulgare 'Purpureum'
Crocosmia seedheads
Clover (Trifolium repens) in the grass. Comes up if I don't get round to mowing the lawn and the bees love it. Who knew how pretty it is too.
Pelargonium australe. I love how the petals look pearlescent this close up.
Birch leaf

Do it! So much fun and beautiful results. My photography kit wish-list is longer than my arm these days. S x
Stunning photos – how I wish I had a macro lens – the results are amazing
Thanks Alison!
I wish I had my own macro lens but I’m doing the course at the V&A strating next month. Really looking forward to it.
How lovely – I hope you enjoy the course. It’s an inspiring place to be. Lots of great photo opportunities!
You lucky, lucky devil. Sigh……
