Sheps Wildflowers

You have inspired me to dig out my old Canon 1000D. But looking at the prices of the lens you use has left me putting it back in the cupboard again!! I'll have to start saving the pennies!

 

Don't be put off, Penny... there are some cheap secondhand bargains out there.

The very cheap Nifty Fifty 50mm lens will take very good pictures.

A few more Lady's Smock...

Taken with 70-200mmf4LIS

 

A few more from this morning...Meadow Buttercup, Field Horsetail, Crosswort and Bluebell.

 

A few Orchids from yesterday mornings walk.

 

And a few more...

 

Here is a Bee Orchid that I found just up the road, in fact I found a whole colony of the little beauties which was most unexpected.

Best viewed in my Wildflower album as that will display the full size image rather than this compressed one.

 

Lovely pix of the orchids @Sheps
They [the spotted ones] are just getting going properly on the hills here now, and the little one I have in the garden is almost at proper bud stage. I had to clear the ferns etc away, which have gone mad this year due to the weather, so that it has a chance of being seen!

 

Lovely photo @Sheps , I did a dog walk on the Kent Downs this morning, really pleased to find over 20 Bee Orchids plus Man Orchids and lots of Pyramidals,

 

Thanks @fairygirl and @Scroggin

 

A few more Bee Orchid images...

 

As usual @Sheps stunning photos.

 

Thanks very much @On the Levels
