8 August - serious flowers

Don't know what these are but they're tiny & very pretty....
and today's silliness: post script: Not sure whether they're Dodecatheon or Bittersweet nightshade (Solanum dulcamara) - the flowers look very similar!



Looking after THREE children for a few days...and I'm exhausted already...

Lee says darts, but I thought of rockets. Hippie rockets man!

I have always admired the Woody Nightshade (Bittersweet), though a weed and poisonous it is still a pretty little flower. You have captured it very well with the uncluttered background, use of selective focus and blur.

This is gorgeous Nicky! I have tried many times to photograph this, a type of Deadly Nightshade I think, but never got close to as beautiful a shot as this.
