Beauvais Close-ups

Hello everyone I have, admittedly been neglecting my blog, although by the same
 token, muts say that's it's not on purpose ... I'm busy with a  lot of background work
in getting {Gena D Photography}  off the ground, and sadly at times, certain things
 need to take a back seat.  
Anyway .... onto the task at hand ... here is a selection of close-up shots taken
this weekend ....

Contrasts

I entitled this picture "contrast" because I loved the look of the 

 fragile poppies and wildflowers growing on this embankment against

a rock solid (literally) wall and old olive tree.  

The contrast is also in relation to new life and growth vs. the old, ancient and

 established - the ancient walls of the castle and the very old olive tree

under which the poppies were growing.

 This image was taken during the recent trip to Portugal outside the

St. George Castle in Lisbon.  We were in a rush and a  snapped a few images

in a hurry, wish I'd caught more of the olive tree... alas!!

Autumn Leaves II

I came across an array of Cherry Tree autumn leaves in our courtyard and

managed to capture a few worthy of keeping.

This one is my favorite of the set - I love the colour, the fine detail,

the light and shady bits .....
