Flower Show 2013-1 (二零一三 花展之一)

For a photo flower nut like me, the annual flower show is an irresistible temptation. But it's hard work. One has to jostle with the crowds milling around one, got bumped, got dirty looks from some impatient fellow photographers for occupying a spot for what they consider far too long, be content with less than ideal photo-shooting positions, can't change the background of the flowers one wishes to take and one has to be really quick. Besides, one can't ask for help from the sun. But there can be some rewards. Perhaps one will get one good photo out of maybe 20 or 30 and if one is really lucky, one out of 10. Here are some of the better ones from the chrysanthemum family




One in red.


One pinkish red



Another almost red but simpler



one in pink



Another in lighter pink



Another light pink tinged with yellow



Pink bothering orange



Orange ones



 pinkish purple top orange bottom yellow and orange heart



a really purple one



Lighter purple hues



beige with purple streaks



A yellow one with a green heart



A yellow one with a yellow heart



A yellow one bothering on orange



A multi-color ones on yellow background



Its heart of yellow



Yellow bordering on brown



Bright yellow



Another bright yellow



A white with a yellow heart



Finally sun flowers



Fun with sun !







菊花

秋叢繞舍似陶家,

遍繞篱邊日漸斜。

不是花中偏爱菊,

此花開盡更無花。

元稹






Chrysanthemums

Bushes of fall circling the house like Tao's
  Circling the edge of the fence, the sun gently declines.
Not that I've a special liking for chrysanthemums,
Once their blooming is done, there'll be none.
Yuan Zhen      ( tr. El Zorro)
