Tall poppies!
Today we went back to Alowyn Gardens and they had swathes of poppies currently in bloom. My instinct was to get in the middle of them but it isn’t my garden so I stayed on the fringe and took images from the edge- still beautiful 🙂
As always, click in for more detail.
Apologies as also I am behind in my reader – catch up day tomorrow 🙂

Lovely capture, love the lighting, really shows of the poppies elegance, well done !
Thank you and for taking the time to comment.
It does look as if you are in the middle of it – how tall were they? Beautiful shot of these.
I’m glad you got a sense of being in the middle of them, some were about 70 cm (27 inch). It is a really busy garden and I had a few odd looks as I tried to get the angle I wanted!
I’m used to odd looks 🙂
Glad you got the shot you did. They were big!
They are such delicate flowers .. Love the colours
Glad you liked Julie 🙂
You must still have the smell of the earth in your nostrils. Great angle.

You really know how to capture the essence of spring x
Thanks Jude, although it feels like winter is back today!
The perspective does make them tall! and oh so beautiful against that sky. Wonderful!
Thank you very much – glad you liked it 🙂
Love that you have incorporated the sky into this shot.
Gives a real sense of the tallness.
