After dark in the garden
« on: June 14, 2012, 01:43:13 »
As you all know I am a night owl  ;) I love to take photographs of flowers at night as I think the colours are sometimes a little better, so here's a little look at some of what's growing around my garden by night  :)

Thank you.

Yes, you are right Saddad, an aquilegia from seeds given to me ages ago by Georgie. McKana hybrid.

I like the idea of night flowers piccies its very subtle and reminds me of underwater pics at night with just a black background.

Now we know what you get up to at night, lovely pictures.  I have 'love in a mist' coming up all over my allotment, mainly blue, but just one white and one pink flower.  Just love it.
