Spring pollen

Took this the other day when Lis and I were doing our dippy (see below) -

the white flowers looked best with her shot because the purple was a little

distracting from the bottle (which was what my shot was about) - but thought

these were too pretty not to post!!

Nothing much going on at the park, so I decided to photograph wildflowers in blur. I did several different versions but this is my favorite. It was a beautiful, quiet night with an amazing sunset which I just enjoyed-no pics.

Most of the time, vetch is a tangled up mess because the delicate vines get all tangled up together. It was nice to find a small bit of this wildflower that I could isolate from the background. Background texture from Topaz Studio 2.

 

Thank you for your views and comments, much appreciated. Have a great day!

Centaurea montana, the perennial cornflower, mountain cornflower, bachelor's button, montane knapweed or mountain bluet, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, endemic to Europe. It is widespread and common in the more southerly mountain ranges of Europe, but is rarer in the north. It escapes from gardens readily, and has thereby become established in the British Isles, Scandinavia and North America. This plant has become an invasive species in British Columbia, Canada. Centaurea montana grows in meadows and open woodland in the upper montane and sub-alpine zones, in basic areas. It grows to 30–70 centimetres (12–28 in) tall, and flowers mainly from May to August.

Lens EXIF data incorrect. Lens used was TT Artisan 40mm f/2.8, probably at around f/5.6

Took this whilst walking down a footpath with my kids. Hence the slight blur. But beautiful bokeh!

One of the first spring flowers.

I’m not sure what the plant is called, but it is growing in our little rainforest zone and it is very pretty.
