I captured this while on a walk in a nearby park with my Nikon D70.
Before I started photography, I didn't know much about plants and wondered, "Is this a hydrangea too?" After some research, I found out it's a type of lacecap hydrangea. Photography always teaches me something new about the nature around me.
Our hydrangea is sort of a non-descript colour, being neither pink nor blue, but I often think of it as pearl.

Happy Bokeh Wednesday!
When the weather turns wetter and colder its time to think about creative indoor photography so today the speedlights and coloured gels have come out.
Hakone Tozan MoHa 1 #104 climbs the 8% grade towards Ohiradai Station as it passes a fully bloomed row of hydrangeas. Japanese mountain railroading does not disappoint.

June in Japan is the beginning of its "infamous" rainy season. Most days from June into late July are filled with warm, rainy days and cloudy skies. Yet, it is in this rainy period when Japan's second most famous flowers bloom, Hydrangeas.
In the Tokyo Metropolis, three railways are very well known for the hydrangeas that bloom along the line, the Hakone-Tozan Railway, The Keio-Inakashira Line and the Enoshima Electric Railway. Goryo Shrine near Kamakura is a famous spot for hydrangeas, often packed with locals and tourists to view and photograph them. Here, an Enoden Type 1000 Series leads a Fujisawa bound local as it approaches Goryo Shrine.

Hydrangea is one of the symbol of "Rainy Season" in Japan. But it is not in Vancouver. Especially this year, there has been no rain for a long time.
Large and impressive heads on these lovely Hydrangeas.
