Forget-Me-Not

No technical brownie points for this one. It was taken outside on a wet and windy afternoon and the focusing is not brilliant but I really like the delicacy and colours of the flowers. The conditions were a bit too much for my poor little camera to cope with really. I still think it is very pretty though. Forget-me-nots were one of the favourite flowers of the Victorians because of their sentimental name and associations. They are incredibly tiny little flowers measuring only a couple of centimetres across although they look quite big here. I had to get VERY close.
