A photo from the first coloured "flowers" of the Hydrangea serrata I'm drawing. It's going very slow. And I'm not sure it will be as good I hoped for.

Hydrangeas in the garden, 26 July 2008

It was a wonderful sunny day here, and the hydrangeas are not quite finished.

Walking around the village I spotted this Hydrangea. I cropped my image and processed it in Lightroom.

每一天都是無盡歲月裡無法挽留的一天，

每一天都是無窮變化中無法複製的一天，

每一時一分一秒、每個剎那亦是如此：

一如往常的無常，一成不變地變化，

一旦了解關於時間的真相，

感慨將變得莫名其妙，

祈求也難免言不由衷。

Hydrangeas retain their stunning beauty as autumn progresses. One hard frost and they will be gone for another year. 7th November 2009, Bodnant Garden, North Wales.

Hydrangea.

this is the same hydrangea i have photographed before when it was brilliant blue. it never developed more blossoms, they all now face the ground. i really like the beautiful color variation that has developed.

My wife loves to grow hydrangeas. I love to photograph them. That makes for a pretty good match.

ぱっと見では露出ムラはなくなっているけど、暗い色を撮らないとわからないのかも。
