A single poppy isolated from others in the same shot, a subtle blend of 2 original colour images and several effects layers to create an emotive image that leaves a hint of the surrounding blooms and stems.

A gentle flurry of snow has covered a cluster of rose hips. A gentle textured background has been added to concentrate the eye on the main subjects.
The crocus is a small and beautiful spring flower in many colours, yellow, purple and white being most common. This little yellow crocus was growing on a grassy bank in Nottinghamshire UK.
Surely a sign of spring, a carpet of bluebells in a small wooded area.
This blossom is just one of countless thousands an apple tree produces as part of the cycle of nature.
There are several types of Bluebell, the native 'English' Bluebell and a garden escapee Spanish type, confused by the interbreeding of both leading to a series of hybrids. I am of the view this is a native Hyacinthoides non-scripta. One way or another though they remain a thing of beauty.

The flowers of the Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) tree are often called candles. The tree produces both male and female flowers and of course the 'fruit' is our much beloved conker.

Marigolds are one of those delightfully bright and cheerful flowers that liven up any flower bed. This image is of a single bloom I found that had become detached from the parent plant.
When you take the time to look the simple white clover Trifolium repens is a stunningly beautiful piece of nature that so many people see as a weed. Each 'flower' is made up of many, many smaller flowers - something that I have tried to show in this focus stacked image.
Red clover (Trifolium Pratense) is so often regarded as a weed yet is not only a fabulous food source for many insects but a valuable food for humans who can be bothered as well as being a great nitrogen fixer that is popular amongst farmers.

One of nature's most impressive seed dispersal systems the dandelion (Taraxacum erythrospermum) has entertained children for years as a 'clock' whilst spreading its seeds far and wide.

The foxglove (digitalis purpurea) is both beautiful and deadly. Eating any part of eat can lead to irregular heartbeat and death. This extraction shows the beauty of the flowers against a black background.

Most people know of bluebells but there is a lesser known white version - the whitebell.
This rose decided that late November was a suitable time to bud but hadn't figured on a frosty morning.
As spring gets into gear these lovely delicate crocus flowers brighten up the day.
A lovely pink tulip backlit by spring sunshine.
A single daffodil in the early morning mist.
It is a long established but totally untrue urban myth that you can tell the time of day by how many puffs it takes you to blow all the seed umbrellas off of a dandelion. What is true is that these little umbrellas once set free can travel an amazing distance.
