Before the rain - some flowers

[GardenersHelper]

I have been photographing flowers in our garden for a couple of months now but haven't processed any of them until now. These were captured raw, hand-held using natural light a few days ago before the serious rain set in, using my Panasonic G80 micro four thirds camera and 45-175 lens, with a Canon 500D close-up lens for some of them (probably #1 and #8 and perhaps one or two others) and a Raynox 150 for #4. They were processed using DXO Optics Pro, Silkypix and Lightroom. There are 1300 pixel high versions in this album at Flickr. (This post explains why there are three versions of each image.)
