Pretty Flower

I can't give this it's proper name - it's one of the many interesting things that I find on my walks and that I can't identify, so all I can say is that I hope you find it as interesting as I did.

Fascinating! Wonder if it is a kind of fuschia, a bit like Pink Galore? Very pretty

[Lily Belle]

How unusual, a really lovely capture!

[Peter H]

I'm with @casablanca I think looking like fuchsia family, but can't help any more than that I'm afraid.

[carol white]

Very pretty. I don't know what it is though

[Sarah Bremner]

Gorgeous.....such pretty colours and interesting shapes.

[Pyrrhula]

Need to see more of the plant. The flowers are georgious. And the capture beautiful

[Steve and Pam Winfield]

Interesting and different not what it is :)

[Nina Ganci]

[Kathy A]

[Corinne]

Lovely little bells !

[Babs]

Fascinating it is so pretty

[Shanne]

that's pretty - is it small, knee high, and a wildflower? Because I suspect white campion or one of the relatives, on its way out.

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful capture and the flowers are very lovely. No idea what sort of plant this is.

@shannejw Ooh I think you are right! Silene latifolia as the Latin techies call it - that can look like this.

Thank you all for your comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

Thank you to all of you who suggested what the flower might be. Particular thanks to @shannejw who identified this as a Campion. Having looked up information and photos of the various Campions, I think it is probably Bladder Campion, it's prefered habitat being 'dry, calcareous grassland, often on scrubby field boundaries', which is exactly the description of the countryside where I found this.
