Sea Pinks

Pembrokeshire view map

Taken this last weekend in Pembrokeshire, a small stand of Sea Pinks (Armeria maritinum).

As with the gosling shot this was taken from ground level with a reasonably shallow depth of field in order to reduce the background to a blur. The background is actually the sea cliffs of Pembrokeshire, but you would not know that from the image.

Post-processing in photoshop has created the very white and blurred effect, which for this subject I quite like.
