purple passion
While staying in a friend’s home in Canberra, I took this shot in their garden on a beautiful, sunny mid-winter’s day, when the cool colour temperatures combined with wonderful winter blooms.

Hi Linda, ,
Thank you. Glad you like it.
But I have to confess that I had nothing to do with the lighting…it was all Mother Nature’s work!

Stacy Rodriguez
Beautiful. :)
Deanna Roberts...
Very nice. Would love to see a macro shot, just of the centre too!
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Oh yes!! That would be cool. The only trouble is this was taken in a friend’s garden in another city and they’re now overseas!!
:(
Oh well, I’ll keep it in mind for other times, and future flowers.
Thank you Deanna

Fab detail, colour and lighting. Lovely.
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Elana, first my apologies for not replying to your comment months ago when you left it…it is only just now that I found it! And what a lovely surprise it was too!
Next, thank you so much for your kind words. I’m quite stunned by your response and enthusiasm. But I had little to nothing to do with the lighting and colour. They were both there and available without any effort on my part.

Wonderful shot, love the strong vibrant purples.
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Steven, I’m so sorry I hadn’t spotted your comment so kindly left so long ago! For some reason, I have only just come back here to find you waiting so patiently for me!:O
Thank you for your kind words and generous comment. It was an absolutely stunning flower on full display at the time, so I took full advantage of the photo opportunity it provided.

THank you Nathan. I’m so pleased you like it. It was one of those shots that just happened..the light and everything seemed to fortuitously come together at just the right moment.
