October Flower Updates

in

I do not know if its seasonal and perhaps because of Halloween, but our friends at the Brambles Florist pull out all the stops to get us some very different flowers this month. We always get top quality flowers to photograph from them, but there are some strange ones here today. One of my favourites is the dark red gerbera that looks as though its been through a shredder with spiky petals. One of the flowers that resembles buds on the end of two slender spikes is still opening. So I hope to get a second shoot out of them soon. So its a huge thanks to Chris and the ladies at the Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours. You never cease to amaze me! And of course a big thanks to my assistant and wife Amy for her long sufferance and help.

So that is it for this month,. Thank you for tuning and and seeing just what we have to offer this month and hopefully see you all safely again in November.

Something a little different for this months flower pictures, in that there are no flowers.

A thanks also to Amy for all her help.

Well that is it for this month. I hope to see you back here at the end of October …. so see you soon x

There is a very grassy feel to the flower images this month. Something I have never photographed before, so a welcome first. The two grasses we have, one is quite dainty and etherial looking while the second looks like a phallic symbol with a brewers droop. But it makes for some interest pictures. Thanks then to Chris and the ladies at The Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours. For helping me. As well as a shout out for my wife Amy, for her help and input on the shoot day.
