Wood Forget Me Not

Juste ce qu'il fallait ! Simple et élégant !

Just the one looks so good against the muted background Keith.
Your wild patch might be a pretty unsuccessful, but your photography certainly isn't!!
Superb shot!

Schitterende opname,Keith,schitterende bokeh.
Heb jij de bloem geplukt en mee naar binnen genomen?
Bij mij in de tuin staan ze ook,maar daar waait het altijd (lol)
Vriendelijke groeten............Frans.

Thanks Frans...........I did pick it, but this was taken outside in my garden. I find the lawn usually makes a lovely background. This flower spreads very quickly and picking a tiny piece won't be noticed at all.

I prefer not to pick them if I can help it though :-)

Vriendelijk bedankt,Keith voor de snelle reactie.
Hartelijke groeten.........Frans.

PERRRRRRRFECTION!! Gorgeous light and shadow, awesome color and details. These flowers are just so wonderful, aren't they? NICE job on this little blue bouquet. :)

Thanks for the compliments on my coin pictures, they were such fun to take. :)

Just beautiful

Lovely little flowers; great use of bokeh Keith.

Thanks very much everyone................all comments and stars gratefully received.

Another great flower close-up my friend. Your Zuiko lens certainly does a nice job of that, just like my old Zuko lenses did too. Yep -full marks -again.

Cheers, Herb

Thanks Herb. I was using a little Olympus Stylus 1s camera this time. It's fantastic to carry around if the main focus of a trip is not photography. It fits in a large jacket pocket. 28-300 (35mm equiv) and f2.8 throughout the zoom. If I sit in the garden I often keep it nearby, just in case.

Glad you like it.

intense !! J'adore

Thanks Dan........much appreciated.

They have a beautiful intense blue which seems to glow out of the dark green.

Thanks Gudrun...............glad you like it.

Letztes Jahr hatte ich viele Vergißmeinnicht im Garten, aber sie sind dann wohl vertrocknet. Dieses Jahr habe ich keine. Um so mehr freut mich dieser Anblick!

I planted these from seeds Wilhelm................they've taken nearly two years to appear! Glad you like them.

How funny: in German this flower has the same name: "Vergissmeinnicht!" ("Vergiss mich nicht").
This macro is overwhelming. The small blue blossoms glow bright against the dark background.

Thanks for letting me know that..........some wild flowers have many different names - a lot of them are unique to the places they grow.

I'm very pleased that you like this one Susanne!

forget me nots will treat you well. good choice to grow - reminds me that i need to plant some. my old patch was in a pot for many years and survived our move, but after about 10 years it stopped coming back.
