DAMP PETALS

I was stuck for ideas today, when I noticed one of the Clematis plants had started to flower. Just one problem,this climber has spread way up high into a tree and only the higher ones had opened. Health and Safety aficionados look away now, propped a ladder, on an uneven floor, up into the tree, scaled the ladder to about 10 feet high and could take pictures. Thing is, it was windy and as the wind blew, the tree swayed,ladder rocked and I had both hands on camera, certainly interesting. However I got the shot !!

Best viewed large.

P.S. glad you're in one piece after your adventure up the tree Tarzan !!

Really nice shot and I like the effect that you have added to it. Well done for all of the effort that you put into getting the shot!

Love your description as much as your picture! Could picture the whole episode - but you sure got an extra good shot as your reward and extra special enlarged. FAV

Lovely shot! Well worth the effort to capture it! Excellent editing, too.
