So that's a fence! I thought is was a bunch of little trees in a perfect row! Ha! Ha! Wonderful capture of the wild garlic! There's so much of it there! The lighting and colours are beautiful! Nice work, Susie! :) #1125683Susie Peek-Swint May 09, 2009
Thanks Lorna .. LOL on the fence .. it is rather rustic and obviously doesn't stop the garlic getting through ~ might deter vampires though ;) #7503867Monnie Ryan May 09, 2009
This is new to me -- had no idea there is such a thing as wild garlic! Now I do, and it's quite beautiful! #7503875Susie Peek-Swint May 09, 2009
Many thanks Monnie .. I think the plant likes damp woody areas which are abundant around here so we have sweeps of white flowers carpeting our forest floors this time of the year :) #7503886

What a wonderful capture of this wild garlic, Susie!! Wow, it really does carpet the forest floor, doesn't it?!! The rustic little fence just sets the whole scene off perfectly, too...and the details, textures, lighting, tones, point of view and composition here all are superb!!
