Managed to grab a couple of shots of our Hydrangea in between showers.....they're in full bloom now, & this is just
a close-up of one of the 'Umbels', (each cluster is known as an Umbel !....on this 'Umbeliferous plant')
The colour is a very deep pink, & is stunning at this time of year !!
Many thanks for your C&C's for 'Summer Bounty'.....glad you liked it !!!

Tremendous image Keith, makes my effort look really quiet and plain.
Dougie
Like that Keith and the deep colour looks fantastic with the water on

A beautifully rich colour to this hydrangea, Keith, and the droplets add a lot to the attraction of this frame-filling image.
I know them as corymbs or panicles, but I like the word umbel. It's apparently from the Latin "umbella" which means a sunshade or parasol, rather appropriate for the raindrops
.
Great color and detail, beautiful Full Frame seting. Well composed.
I wish I could grab a few shower between our dried out hydrangeas !!!
looks fantastic covered in little pearls
Some excellent shades of pink, Keith, the water is a bonus.
