[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I went out for a walk today and found in the hedge row
this South African Daisy ( osteospermon ) flowering as if it was in the summer. in Africa they grow wild every where and are classed as a weed. they were brought in to England as a summer pot plant, But all ways died in the winter when it got cold. We have had a very mild damp winter in Dorset with very little frost.How this one has found its way into the hedge i do not no. But will it end up as a weed here if we keep getting such a mild climate.

Hi Nick,

this is really nice, it almost seems to be hovering! The colours and details are great and the central composition works really well too.

Cheers,

Paul

Nice color and catchy contrast with background. Sharp in the center but depth of field is quite not sufficient at f/3.2. Other than that, well done. TFS, and best wishes,
Hakan
