Looking back through my files of photos I discovered these of waterlilies in Kew Gardens taken in 2011. My camera was in constant use in those days and I have a wonderful record to refer to. I don't use my proper camera very much now, partly because phone cameras have improved but also because at some point I lost the habit. I think that I am going to change that.
the bottom one with the Fibonacci spirals of leaves is covetable.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I was astonished when I re-discovered the image. I could remember the shadows from the roof but not the leaves. Have you ever been to Kew? It is not as beautiful as Kirstenbosch but still impressive to visit.
Deleteyes - to see ? Marianne North's paintings
DeleteFabulous photos. I'm always pleased I've lugged my SLR with me when I do take it out. The waterlilies at Kew are amazing and VERY big.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I have only ever used a small Canon but I take my time to compose shots when I use a proper camera and I am more likely to think creatively. It is so easy to use a phone camera that it has made me lazy.
