The night has come

I don't normally take photos with a flash. I know that it helps sometimes to show all the details. And I have tried that, but until I get some nice and portable flash diffuser I just don't use it and rely on natural light most of the times.

But one late evening as I was chilling in the garden this little crab spider showed up. To be able to photograph it I had to use flash.

Funny thing. I looked those those shot multiple times... back and forth... and only now I noticed that there is another tiny little spider on this flower.
Can you see it on the first photo? :)

A little bit further away I got Lavender and Larkspur. The first one was planted on purpose and taken care of. The second one grows where it wants and spreads the seeds on its own for the net year. Both equally pretty.

And lastly one that I thought was there for a reason. The bush is quite tall and it blooms with multiple, tiny little white flowers. I asked mum what it is and she said it is a weed and she is not supposed to be there. She just forgot to pull it out :p

Pretty weed :)
