Feeling blue?

Then step into our garden in the evening as the light fades and enjoy the colours and patterns created by the flowers and leaves. This is anchusa (I think). It grows in profusion in the woodland/shrubby border and is a brilliant blue. We also have forget-me-nots, columbine, cornflowers and bluebells out at the moment with borage and perennial geraniums to follow.

I used a shallow dof here to concentrate on a few of the tiny flowers and provide a hazy blue/green background.

I admit to feeling on the blue side. The steroid injection has not worked wonders for Arth, although there is time yet to feel benefit. Being in the garden was therapeutic.

It's been a good day otherwise. We worked very hard in the committee this morning and made good progress preparing for the October festival.
