yes -flowers again Alan. But you can keep it up for me.( I am biased I suppose as I was a head gardener by trade before I went into conservation.)
This one is a little different from your norm with the pale background. I like the basic two colours. Its like a colour black and white. ! Great comp. as usual.
Cheers

I like it Alan especially as there is a great deal of it in the West of Ireland and has been a favourite plant of mine. However I think I would have preferred a green background as one normally associates it with its green leaves.

That's a great shot but IMHO and I'm just a low grade learner I would like a dark green back ground. It would look great illuminated I'd buy it.
