I really love irises, and I find them often difficult to photograph, but you have such a feeling for flowers, these are beautiful.

You and Helen are too kind! The flowers and plants vary according to the season, and I usually take photos of them when they are at their best. Otherwise, the backyard looks quite ordinary.

Do you have a photo of the whole backyard, I wonder… I am SO curious. It seems like one of the most beautiful places on earth!

I used the 100-400 mm lens, not a macro lens. Thank you.

I haven’t for years. I did a few coloured pencil drawing decades ago. There was a lovey purple one in my father’s garden that I drew.

That particular tree has no apparent scent, but I don’t know about Viburnum in general.
