Taking a walk around the Great Orme. We didn't go much further, knees aren't up to it these days. ;-)

There was a lot of wild flowers growing at the base of this wall, including harebells, Vipers bugloss, and thistles etc.

Taken in a local churchyard. Part of the churchyard is fenced off and left as an area for wild flowers to grow.

Taken in a local churchyard. I think I have the correct identification.

Also known as Queen Anne's Lace (Daucus carota).

Some of my commenting yesterday was quite rushed as I had to visit our local hospital with my wife. It turned out to be an age-related eye condition, which is not serious, but we were there for hours waiting around and I we got home late in the day. My apologies if I missed anyone!

This year, we have found a small patch of wild garlic in our garden, which I think probably originated in our next door neighbours garden. The flowers are really lovely!

Still Life with Bluebells

A simple, but I hope elegant, still life image.

The bluebells are from my garden....they're not the native species but the Spanish variety, which are considered invasive. They're very pretty though.

Dandelion

Keith Burton has posted:

I dug this dandelion plant out of my lawn. I was looking a bit battered having survived some heavy rain. Before it went in the compost bin, I decided to photograph it from a different perspective. Again, I balanced the plant on a fence post, so I could use the lawn as a background. I added a vignette to make it stand out a bit more.
