Wretched weather if you feel like doing anything other than playing with
flowers inside today. Happily, that is exactly what I did all morning.
I'm a little obsessed with taking photos of single flowers against some
very deep aubergine coloured velvet. I don't know how but it is as if
the velvet draws all light in the room to the flower and itself looks
very very dark. All of my bedroom plants {almost all begonias} are
outside today, having a drink.
The last shot is my favourite. I adore flannel flowers {Actinotus helianthi} so much. They are so delicate. I used to think that they get their luminous quality because they grow solely in moonlight. Actually, I still think that.
