    ONE at Wisley RHS

    I met up with a great long years friend at Wisley RHS Gardens for a walk in the grounds and my first visit to the New Glass Houses ...(well they were opened in 2007 by the Queen and Prince Phillip, but I was last there in 2006 )

    Amazing !

    Just a Fern




    actually, it is real sharp in orf on my pc and the jpeg processing above leaves me cold

    here is a re processed version which is more like the ONE capture





    and all the below are much sharper too sorry

    Singapore Jade Orchids growing down are beautiful





    Bird of Paradise one among a flock again beautiful





    forget the name of this Orchid





    and this one





    difficult light/conditions as the glass windows need cleaning and it was cloudy/overcast outside but the ONE did well

    Enjoy ! well worth a visit and just off the A3/M25

    I'm long overdue a return visit, it was in the last stages of being built, when I was last there.

      A beautiful selection, Chevvy.

          Excellent work Chevvy!

          Obviously ONE means quite a few more than one, but no complaints.

              Images #2, 3 are exquisite, I've never seen them before, Chevvy however #4. 5. 6 are familiar, excellent IQ. the fern puts me in mind of an otter.

                A very exotic set Chevvy. I like those Jade Orchids.

                    Lovely shots Chevvy.

                    The Bird of Paradise stands out for me.

                    Thanks for sharing.

                      One would be pleased to have taken one (or more) shots like these with one's "one" but one would have to remember that being in a glass house one should not throw stones.

                      Sorry one couldn't resist.

                              Thanks for stopping by and your kind comments

                              I can highly recommend a visit and apparently the Glass houses are filled with Butterflys in the summer - Graham check the RHS website for more info. My friend said it was " stunning with huge butterflys of every colour" so I shall go again later this year, when its hot HOT HOT and the Butterflys about too

                              I have some amazing Water images to share tomorrow
