Winter in the garden

Winter Aster "flowers".

The beautiful flowers of Helleborus orientalis.

Miss all the flowers in the garden, wish it was spring.
But the winter flowers, like Helleborus are beautiful. Also the seed of Aster and especially Hollyhock are wonderful.

I added this photo, below, earlier in another post but it belongs at this post too :-)

First "spring like" day

Yesterday there was sun !!! after days of dark clouds and rain. It felt a bit like spring !
It was the first time, after months, that I went out in the garden with my camera and telelens to photograph flowers. 
That are one of the most beautiful photography moments for me. To be so close to the flowers, to nature.

The Crocus flowers are opening in the sun.

Helleborus purpurascens is also flowering. Love the deep purple color of the petals.

Spring memories

Spring memories in the garden. Love these plants, Geum. The flowers are wonderful, so very delicate and they are great photography objects. 
Can't wait to see them flowering again in the garden in spring.

Flowers, flowers, summer memories

Flowers, I love to photograph flowers. In the garden, in the countryside, everywhere.
Most of the time I use my macro lens, to see and photograph the amazing details.

Scabiosa Purpurascens is one of my favorite flowers. The flowers are so delicate and have a wonderful blue color.

A single purple Columbine.
Below the hardy Geranium versicolor. All the photos I made of photos in my garden.

Still or again flowering in october

The beautiful yellow David Austin rose Graham Thomas is flowering again.
This is an English rose, with cupped blooms. It has a wonderful fragance.
I love English roses because there are flowering for a long time and these rose plants are healthy and strong.

The last days it is very warm, like summer, 24 C. 

This purple pink Phlox is still flowering in the garden. I have many Phlox plants they are perpect garden plants.

Floral Friday Fotos

Sunny white Rudbeckia

Last month I also bought a white Rudbeckia garden plant. There are also beautiful, like the purple ones.
There are photogenic too :-)
I used my 250 mm Canon telelens to get close to the flower, I couldn't get close enough with my 60mm macro lens.

Purple Rudbeckia

Wonderful autumn flowers, the purple pink flowers of the Rudbeckia.
They brighten up the garden in fall.
Love the way they look with the petals a bit hanging down and the stamen at the top.
The contrasting colors a so beautiful too.

Pink rose in the morning sun

I was happy to see the morning sun on the beautiful pink flowers of the climbing rose. I don't know the name of it.
The sunlight created a very beautiful background too.

I made this photos with my Canon eos 70D camera.

Pink Phlox flowering in the garden

Love this plant, the Phlox. Very long flowering garden plant, very easy plant.
The sunlight on the flowers was so wonderful.

Beautiful Rhododendron

The Rhododendron is one of the most beautiful spring shrubs, I think.
Love the sunlight on the petals of the flowers, great moment to make a photo
:-)

The delicate Pulsatilla

Pulsatilla flowers are so very delicate. I love to photograph the gorgeous flowers with the hair on the petals.
The color contrast of the stamen and the red petals is wonderful too.

The Camelia a very early flowering beauty

The flowers of the Camelia are like flowers of roses, so very beautiful.

The first photo is of a Camelia in our own garden. The photo below is made in the garden of my parents.
