Another gorgeous pair of captures Ian. I love the colour and detail. I know the feeling buddy, I have been housebound too, but off work for a week now, so it's out with the camera, weather permitting. Hope your weather clears up a little buddy.

Dave.

Vibrant and very beautiful Ian. Love them. Wish we'd get some rain here. You can send us some of your excess if you like.

Thats that thing I love about flowers even on days that are bleak with cloud and rain, and in your case thunderstorms, flowers supply a sorce of colour and happiness in their beauty. Thanks for sharing this beauty with us.
