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! :) #1125683

Susie 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 ;) #7503867

Monnie 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! #7503875

Susie 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

This is beautiful, Susie -- the light is lovely and the contrast between the straight, rugged, rough fence and the soft-form, lacy garlic is very nice. #7504077

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!! Great work, my friend!! :o) #7511366
