Comment: Pulsatilla montana is a poisonous but incredible beautiful plant with its deep complementary colored and large, up to 5 cm in diameter, flowers, which are enveloped with silvery hairy garment. It is a South European montane floral element and is absent from most regions of the Alps including Slovenian alpine phytogeographical region. But it grows scattered more southern. In Slovenia this not really rare, but uncommon beauty can be found scattered in country's warmest, southwest part.
Pictures shows young, still small plant. During its anthese (time in which a flower fully develops from bud to fruit) it grows constantly and is much taller at the end.

Another shot of model Shuky taken in Oxford a couple of weeks ago. Quite a few more of these to come so hopefully no-ones getting bored yet.......
Still rather out of my comfort zone shooting people but that a good reason to do more of it. If anyone is interested in sparing a couple of hours in return for some images feel free to get in touch. Of course it would be helpful if you were based somewhere in the Oxford area.
Plenty more from the various model shoots I've been involved in within my portraits set : www.flickr.com/photos/darrellg/albums/72157601321043616
