Cottage garden, cares melt...
Pepper Street in Lymm has some characterful cottages. Gardens with sweet peas and other summer flowers growing heartily and healthily, including what I think are these pink daisies, next to the more familiar white version. The symbolic meaning of the daisy flower is unfettered love and innocence which I am unsure of, but I'd go along with the anonymous saying that "Cares melt when you kneel in your garden."

beautifully composed and shot!
ReplyDeleteGood photo Chrissy. You must have been shooting at small F stop.
ReplyDeleteSorry but I am no technical photographer Andy ;-)I just point and shoot using a Nikon Coolpix with a selection of focus options- this would have been using close up- perhaps that is equivalent to small F stop?
ReplyDeleteI have a sister-in-law called Daisy - the name is supposed to mean "day's eyes" as the close at night.
ReplyDeletewell-framed! I love those beautiful flowers in the foreground... :)
ReplyDeleteI would love my own garden, with flowers like that!
ReplyDeleteJust a gorgeous shot! Well done!
ReplyDeleteThey are softly pink and look quite big in perspective...

ReplyDeleteLove the composition Chrissy, there's nothing quite like an English country garden!
ReplyDeleteIt's not about the camera. It's about the person using the camera. And you used it perfectly here. This is one of those very special photos that come along serendipitously and should be displayed for all to see. If there's any photo contests in your area, you might want to enter this...it's quite extraordinary!
ReplyDeleteNice comments, Chrissy, worthy of a lovely photo!
ReplyDeletelovely!
ReplyDeleteIt takes a lot of effort to plan a good natural looking cottage garden. Great garden and super pic Chrissy.
ReplyDeleteA nice bunch of blooms. I feel my cares melting away already. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for seeing such beauty.
ReplyDeletePlease have a good Friday.
A great POV on this shot! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh my Chrissy, I love this shot!
