Day's Eyes

... blog post:

 

Day's eyes or daisies as we now call them were known as such as the flowers open in the day and close at night.

Erigeron Karvinskianus or Mexican Fleabane aka Mexican Daisy

Anyway, I had an excellent morning at Savill Garden walking about snapping them and all sorts of other flora both outdoors and also indoors within the Queen Elizabeth Temperate House. Mega!

The latter has only recently been refurbished so is looking spic and span if a little sparse until everything grows back and matures.

A further selection of my pictures made on the day are included in the gallery below:

All images made on my new OMS Olympus OM-1 with my 8-25mm f4 Pro and my 12-100mm f4 IS Pro.
