Looking Up at Friday Flowers


All the pretty ranunculus are starting to bloom out in the garden.


They're one of my absolute favourite flowers.


The apple blossom is looking so pretty too.
I'm impressed by the quantity of it as well :)


Two varieties of apple here, one is Cox's Orange and the other is Lady in the Snow.



I like to take photographs from different angles, whether it be looking up, looking down on a subject, crouching or climbing to take a shot. It's nice to get a different perspective. Of course it would be nicer if one had a DSLR, but I won't whinge again :)
Must be time to borrow the camera from work again though.
Did you notice the nice blue sky? That's what inspired these pics as I was laying on my back staring up and just thought how pretty it was .Any excuse to take a photo! Of course that was the other day, today is all gloomy and grey!
Happy Friday - have a good one friends :)

  4. Lovely photos Sarah. Hmmm, lying on the ground looking at blue sky. I hope that happens here sooner rather than later. It's been a pretty grim spring so far. Love your blossom trees. I need to plant one in the small front garden. Do you have any suggestions?

  10. The sky in your pictures is amazing. It actually reminds me of a Cairns sky, so blue and close. The skies here in brissie have been a bit blah and dull lately. I so got your comment about your sheets, they remind me of a bit like a doll that is no longer played with. I didnt say in my post but I always talk to the furniture when we move it to reassure it as to what is happening....I'm a worry I know, he he, have a lovely weekend, xx Katherine

  18. Gorgeous pics! For quick point and shoot, I often choose my phone over DSLR anyway. Hipstamatic and similar have a knack of making the everyday look gorgeous in a way I've not yet mastered with the camera. Case in point right here!
