textures applied: kim klassen artjoy texture {two layers, both multi. one at 52% and the 2nd at 40%}

 

using my new canon 50mm 1.8 lense. very new to photography but enjoying the huge amounts to be learned...

This hydrangea shot is 100% inspired by some of the incredible hydrangea shots I've seen from Japan this spring/summer. A worthy attempt, I suppose, but I don't think I'll ever be able to capture the beauty of the hydrangea the way the Japanese can.

 

VanDusen Botanical Garden, Vancouver. July 2, 2007.

Hydrangea with common green shieldbug (5th instar nymph).

 

This is a stereogram, to be viewed in crossview technique.

Separate images have been taken subsequently (the bug cooperated very well!).

 

Hydrangea, the name, comes from the Greek words "hydro" or water, and "angeion," or vase = water vase, they prefer a lot of water.

A very ancient plant, found in fossils going back thousands of years.

In most species the flowers are white, but in some species (notably H. macrophylla), they are blue, red, pink, light purple, or dark purple.

In these species the colour is affected by the presence of aluminium ions which are available or tied up depending upon the soil’s pH content.

For H. macrophylla and H. serrata cultivars, the flower colour can be determined by the relative acidity of the soil: an acidic soil (pH below 7), will have available aluminium ions and typically produce flowers that are blue to purple, whereas an alkaline soil (pH above 7) will tie up aluminium ions and result in pink or red flowers.

 

I wish you all the very best and thank you for all your kind words, time, comments, likes and faves.

Very much appreciated. M, (*_*)

Too busy yesterday to go and look for something to photograph beyond the back garden. Been painting our dining room and chauffeuring KP and friends from a Birthday Party.

 

When I come back from the Continent, I always visit a flower market, to bring back some beauties that are more difficult to find here.

 

In England, I am sorry to say, the markets (that I go to) could take a lesson! Their flowers here are often too far gone, not a great choice, not FIRST choice, nothing very exciting?

Anyway, bought these, two massive Hydrangea heads. They suffered in transport, so, I filled the bath with cold water and submerged them for 8 hours.

They absorb water through their petals and leaves, and hey-ho, they fully recovered!

Perhaps it's the grotty weather we had in June/July but our hedge of Hydrangea 'Ayesha' is magnificent this year! This is just part of it.

 

My first test of the Canon G1X's HDR 'filter' whereby the camera takes three images at varying brightness and processes them to produce one image with highlights and shadows well-balanced.

I've got an absolute sea of these on my shrubs this year. And they're all big and fluffy.
