It seems to have gone a bit quiet so I thought I might post a couple more pictures, taken a couple of weeks back in the gardens of a local stately house.
Yes, bearded Irises, I am rather partial to Irises & they make good subjects for photographs, interesting shapes and details and some some striking colours, but also some more subdued pastel colours like the second shot above. The gardens where I took the two above have quiet a selection on display.
Some more, taken last summer in Snowdonia. The weather was very changeable, but we got lucky on the day we picked to go up Snowdon, the second shot is from the top, and yes we cheated and took the train.
Super photo’s. You were indeed lucky. I have to admit the only time we were in that area we also took the train.
You sould venture done this end of Wales one day, and take a trip on the Brecon Mountain Railway. Although it doesn’t take you up the highest mountain, it does still have some very photogenic scenery along the route.
