Dark winter day

The snow, that made "everything" beautiful white, is gone. Now the dark January days are back.
But this dark, rainy weather can be great to make photos. I always like the dark brown branches of the trees in winter.

Sheep in the mist

Early december morning. Lovely to see the sheep in the mist, a bit mysterious.

The sheep are every year only for a short period at that place.

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.

Wintertime

Winter, it is cold, a bit frost on the ground.

I photographed these photos with my new wide angle lens Canon EF-S 10-18 mm.
