Sometimes a flower or a bouquet just isn’t enough, so here’s a garden full of blossoms—just for YOU! Can you find the buttercup, four roses, the gardenia, the oleander, the three zinnias, the three altheas, the agapanthus, the black-eyed susan, and the verbena?

This blooming oleander bush is along my side fence.

This shot was a test of my ability to shoot a white (or actually off-white) object in full sunlight without having it blown out anywhere. It was the assignment I gave my budding student with her Nikon D60 and I tied to do it as well with my D80. Both of us got good shots in the end using a rather tiny aperture and a very high speed shutter in the fully manual modes. I actually was a bit surprised it was possible given that I couldn’t even see the flower with my unprotected and light-sensitive eyes. Also the results from the D60 and the D80 were close enough to make a definitive ID of the results from either camera impossible to tell apart. Every day I feel more sure that the Nikon D60 will be the digital “learner camera” for students for a long time to come. :-) The location was the student’s back yard in Penn Valley, California.

Oleander, Nerium oleander. This gorgeous shrub can reach 20 feet tall with a 6-12 foot spread and is native to the Mediterranean region. Hardy in zones 8b-11. Oleander serves as the host plant for the Oleander Moth and the caterpillars can defoliate a plant in a short time, but it will come back very quickly. All parts of the Oleander are highly toxic (even the smoke, if burned, is toxic); just one leaf is enough to kill an adult human. / Nikon D70s / 70-300mm / F8, 1/640…As is / 1/9/09 – 365/54 / / / The beautiful buds… /

Macro shot of a pink Oleander. I was feeling blue :)

This pink oleander was in full flower and was absolutely covered in these flowers. One the larger view you should be able to see the hairy stamen in the middle of the flower. These begin to flower in early spring and continue through summer. This photo was taken using my 4+ macro/close-up filter. It was taken at Club Capricorn Resort near Yanchep.

Taken at the Melbourne Zoo The Oleander Butterfly is a large black butterfly with white spots on the fore wings and a band of elongated spots on the hind wings. The males have a pair of hidden orange-yellow brushes at the tip of the abdomen, which they can extend into bright coloured patch as part of the mating ritual or to deter predators. / Other Names / Common Crow Butterfly / wingspan 70mm, Caterpillar about 50mm / The Oleander is found in open forest and woodland. Often seen in parks and gardens / Range / Throughout tropical Australia and eastern Queensland. Adults sometimes disperse further down eastern Australia as far as Victoria, but there are no permanent breeding populations further south than northern New South Wales. / http://www.ozanimals.com

Allamanda, also known as Yellow Bell, Golden Trumpet or Buttercup Flower, is a genus of tropical shrubs or vines belonging to the dogbane family (Apocynaceae). The genus Alamanda is native to South and Central America. Their year-round production of large, bright flowers have made the Allamanda popular ornamentals. / A woody, evergreen shrub with vigorous growth, Allamanda may reach a free-standing height of 2 metres or more. The leathery leaves are lancelike, pointed, and may either be opposite or in whorls of three or four. The yellow, trumpet-shaped flowers are 5-7.5 centimetres in diameter; cultivated forms tend towards larger blooms which may also be white, purple, pink or orange in colour. Their scent may be described as delicate and fruity. / These rapidly growing vine-like plants are cultivated to provide color as well as shelter and privacy to homes and yards in warmer tropical climates. /
