Stormtroopers....eh?

Yeah, I'm sorry, that's three lots of flowers in a row. I had other plans today because Sky News (delivered to my office desktop) told me that today was the London Premier of the new Star Wars film and that stormtroopers were wandering around Leicester Square (as they do!). That's it, I thought, off to Leicester Square to find me a stormtrooper. But, as I left the office this evening it was pouring with rain and as my bus approached Leicester Square I thought... if I stay on this bus I could be home in the warm in about 45 minutes, and I've got that other lot of tulips at home. Voila!

See I knew you were a smart lady...those stormtroopers will be around for the next 20 or more years, these beauties will not and they're much prettier :>)

Thats a beautiful shot Gail - looks good with the green in the background.
Guest 16-May-2005 22:28
Great background and colours, lovely.

I love the contrast between the deep pink and the green background. Nice lighting too.
Guest 16-May-2005 21:28
This is soothing. The reds against the green background. Rain? Seems like we are having the same kind of weather. :)
David Clunas16-May-2005 21:27
like the intense green on the stems set against the olive green bg
Guest 16-May-2005 21:26
More storm than troopers then :-) Very nice.

wow, those are the most friendly and colorful looking stormtroopers i have ever seen. ^_~ nice background, it's a very rich green, the kind you'd find at an IKEA. :)
Ric Yates16-May-2005 21:04
