    Ahahaha you could almost play Spot the Person who Doesn't have a camera in the first image rolleyes1.gif

    Looks at those rows of beautiful Tulips, those Purple ones are my favourite.

    You've done well to get good backgrounds on the flower shots Martyn.
    What sort of plant is that very first one, it looks like layers and layers and layers of endless green foliage ?

    The second last shot of the Tulip is just Beautiful clap.gif
    I'm sure you had a wonderful time at the Flower Show.

    Lovely Series Martyn thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    I believe the first flower is a crocus.

    Getting the backgrounds was a case of finding a flower that stood out and then slowly (very slowing) moving to a position where it could be isolated, then waiting for all the elbows to stop.
