Beauty in Decay – Pink Hydrangea 1

The hydrangea bouquets have been drying away quite contentedly in their vases, out of my own sheer laziness and neglect really.  They’re still in the water actually – I should really sort that out.

Anyway, today I decided to photograph the pink ones, they have really held their colour so beautifully – the original photos are here.

So here is my first set of pink hydrangea, beauty in decay – I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

PS here is one of my favourites from the previous shoot. This photo was re-posted by Giniversity’s Instagram page, saying they LOVED the shot – you can see their post here:

      Thanks so much Jude. I missed the optimum time a couple of days earlier when the stamen were all still standing up but I do love the vibrant textured petals.
