Permission to Land? (FF25_2025)

The dry weather and sunshine hs returned so we took a short drive up to Hidcote where the gardens are clearly feeling th effects of the lengthy dry spell, dspite the few rainy days earlier this week. 

Very few of my efforts were as I wanted them, bright sunshine, polarising sunglasses and a polariser on the camera not my best idea! 

At least here the near flower is more or less in focus. 
{ok - some of it is ...}

Thanks to our host for flower Friday.
