While i was waiting for my wife at her workplace i decided to walk arround in the garden of a local church no idea what they preach and honestly I don't really care.
I came for the flowers and to do some macrophotography, and not to confess about any downvotes 😜😜

Unfortunitly there was a strong wind so 60% of the images got trashed.

Never te less still plenty of gems to share with you .

The first i flower i came across was these flowering clover
alt

alt

The next flower i found was this white Hydrangea Quercifolia

alt

they also had these flowering shrub Hypericum calycinum / rose-of-Sharon

alt


alt


Hypericum 'Hidcote'

alt

and another variety the Hypericum erectum / goatweed but non of them had any insects on them

alt

Pink dianthus / carnation

alt

Phlomis russeliana / Turkish sage

alt

Finally something was buzzing in the Campanula glomerata / clustered bellflower

alt

and it was gone again ...

alt

and we found it again
hidden within the flower.
alt

and it actually sat stil for a moment so i was able to make some decent shots,

alt

although the wind was trying hard to spoil that moment for me

alt

and it was ready to fly away again

alt

And it was gone again

alt

or not ....

alt

Roof line of a school building behind the church , probably a religious school in the past , don't really think they educate religion anymore here in Holland.

alt

Hydrangea arborescens / smooth hydrangea

alt

Echinacea purpurea / hedgehog coneflower
alt

Hypericum 'Hidcote'

alt

well atleast they have modern lights to illuminate the building, very big LED .

alt

there was a border filled with Geranium bohemicum

alt

changing the aperture to f2.8 to capture some soft images .
