昼下がりのコスモス

The day I took the pictures of the white ones I was not parked where I could get them all so the next time I went over that way I made sure I was in the right parked location...

This cosmos is growing in a ceramic pot on my deck, which receives pleasant light at sunset.

田舎暮らし・コスモス

A little bit of the cosmos I planted this year has just started to bloom! From now until autumn, the cosmos and Japanese Eupatorium will start to bloom.

近況です。今年植えたコスモスがまだちょっとですが、咲き始めました！これから秋にかけてコスモスとフジバカマが咲いていく事でしょう。

smell chocolate flavor.

...caught by that urge to look at something in the garden while the light was right.

Using a flourescent white balance setting to give the images a blue hue, and my 'softer' userdefined picture setting, with a slightly high exposure setting to get the lightness.

No edit (apart from the framing). And i've even managed to work out how to change the crop ratio in camera AND add it to my favourites list on the menu, so these were taken as a square crop. Result.

Cosmos is a genus, with the same common name of cosmos, consisting of flowering plants in the sunflower family. Wikipedia

© ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. Use without permission is illegal.

These lovely flowers belong to the sunflower family and they flower for long periods of time. I have found that you can buy dwarf plants and the normal size ones which can grow up to 6ft tall. The plants were originally native to scrub land and meadow lands in Mexico, but they are now found in many other countries around the world where they grow wild in many different habitats. But best of all you can buy these lovely plants in many shops and garden centres and are a lovely addition to your garden, but you can also grow these lovely plants from seed.

and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time :-)
