22nd - Purple Flowering

Cheltenham, Glos.

I'm not usually a floral photographer but the recent good weather and stunning lighting conditions at all times of the day have made me look at our flowering chums more closely; certainly, this wisteria is an absolute riot of colour from the other end of the garden, with its pale purple and wonderful greenery a beautiful contrast with the red brick of the garden wall.

But I think it makes for a more gentle, considered and subtle composition when viewed from close up...what do you think?
