March Flower Updates

There is a very pinkish feel to the flower pictures this month. I did not notice it at the time I went to Brambles Florist to get them, and I am certainly not complaining … It just makes a bit of a theme for this months images. It was the Thursday before Mothers Day that I dropped in to make a selection, so the shop was crazily busy that day. Still thanks to Nina and Wendy at the shop for helping me and of course Chris who was out delivering. Check out the two websites that accompany this amazing florist for all your flower needs. Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours – worth a look.

Love and kisses also to Amy for her help.

That's it for this month, see you all at the end of April

December Flower Updates

A few seasonal plants for cheer thrown in to give it a bit of a Christmas feel about it. All the flowers were ably provided as usual by our friends Chris and Wendy at Flowers To Yours and Brambles Florist. Once again thank you for all their flowers this month and every month before in the year. A shout out to Amy for all her help on these shoots.

See you all alive and well in 2022. xx

November Flower Updates

Penultimate flower show of the year with another great palette of colour from our friends at the Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours. Its not full on Christmas feel to it, but the red berries are seasonal with the Alternative version in purple my favourite of the shoot. Thanks then to Chris and Wendy at Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours for all their help. With a special mention to my wife, Amy for her assistance. See you all next month

October Flowers Update

Another great month for flowers, provided by Chris and Wendy at Flowers To Yours and Brambles Florist. Its that time of the year for gladioli flowers, so I had a couple to see which one came out the best. They can be awkward to capture sometimes because of their size, but if you concentrate on one flower over and above a series of flowers it can look good.

So thanks then to Chris and Wendy for their much needed help and support along with a shout out to Amy for her input on the day.

May Flower Updates and a few extras

As the year draws closer to Summer, the flowers getting more lovely with each month. This month being no exception to that rule. Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours have provided me with a great choice to shoot, my only problem was that when I got half way through I realised I had not changed what is called the 'Aspect Ratio' on the images. By which time it was too late so this month every image is the same size. Still thanks to Chris at Flowers To Yours and Wendy and Nina at Brambles Florist for the lovely choice. Thank you also to Amy for her help and input.

April Flower Updates and a few extras

The flower gallery for this month was again provided with the great assistance of my friends at Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours. I really could not do this without their valuable input and hope the pictures do them justice. Shout out then to Chris at Flowers To Yours and to both Wendy and Nina at Brambles Florist. Check out their web sites at the highlights above, you will not be disappointed. That is it for this month, so please do come back in May.

Thank you x

February Flowers Update

Another productive flower shoot in the home studio with absolute thanks to my friends at Brambles Florist and Flowers To Yours. Chris and Wendy sorted me out with such a great selection of flowers, which is no mean feat due to the covid lockdown and brexit ramifications. But here they are. Hope you enjoy them and pop back next month to see more?

September Flowers Update

We have a bumper show of flowers this month with some extra stuff Amy picked up on her journey, but mainly the crop from the amazing Brambles Florist and Flowers for yours. So a huge shout to both Chris and Wendy at the shop for their help. I could not have done it without you. And a special mention again to wendy for the fuschia from her garden. Check out their web sites and shop highlighted above.

March Flower Update

This month I have rested the holga lens images and gone more for the pinhole lens takes as they look a lot better. I don’t know how long I can go on doing this as the florist is proberbly closed down with all this virus shit that going around. I do hope she re-opens and I can start again?

*NEW* To Flower Updates - Pinhole Lens Images.

Late last year I obtained through crowd funding a pinhole lens to fit my Nikon camera. Its a specialist lens which you would not use every day, but good to use on subjects like flowers. So with this in mind I am adding onto the Flower Updates these new Pinlens pictures. Similar to the Holga Lens, everything is blurred, but can be very interesting. I am at some point going to try it out on a model, but thats for a later date. Please enjoy these.
