                  Thank you, but as I've said before 90% of the pics are the flowers and plants, and the rest is up to the £49 second hand Tamron 18-70 macro lens which I seem to pick up before the more expensive lenses:dunno::snork: There are certain cameras and lens that you hold in your hand and somehow you seem to forget you're holding them when taking a shot and my K5 and the second hand Tamron lens seem to be those. It's surprising just how much colour there is in the garden that you don't actually see until you really start using your eyes and senses:snork:

                    With vengeance, loli!!! I've got around 5 or 6 varieties and they've all grown in size and expanded in the borders. In fact in the Autumn I'm going to have to dug up at least one as it has swamped a small rose called Regensburg which is in the lawn border. I might have to dig up the rose as well and re-position it away from the Phlox:snork:
