Really like that!! Almost like little fireworks going off inside the flower!
 
Heres my 2 bobs worth, taken in Feb this year, its Mimosa, it smells lush and everyone goes mad for it, they even hold festivals for it.
Mini balls of "Lush" I should call it :clap::runaway::wave::)
Another great thread.

My best ever autumn picture I think. This shot is the current month in the SurreyLife calendar.

Not up in the house though as they absolutely destroyed the composition when they cropped it. Did it differently for the exhibition than they did for the calendar too. The dangers of not having the control over the end product sadly.

You and me both.. hoping the wood next to my house might be hiding some of these treasures. Brilliant shots all.

That looks interesting for a November shot Graham...lovely colours.

I mentioned earlier about the fungi shots...you may all already know, but apparently the red spotty toadstool ones are around in Sept to November so it may be worth looking...

I started my mushroom quest today ...I took a walk around the local churchyard...this hasn't quite worked out as I hoped but it's a start.
