Nice shot and lovely depth of field. Your hydrangea looks very different from anything I'm used to seeing.

@seacreature It's a tree hydrangea. In some varieties the flowers are sort of cone shaped instead of umbrella shaped. They're very large bushes. Like old rhododendrons.

@meotzi Thanks for the info. Haven't come across these before, but it sure makes an interesting photo
