Alex created this infra red version of his tree taken during our outing to the Botanics. Julie thought it an interesting picture.

Alex was pleased with his effort at creating the effect of a Monet painting - deliberately out of focus.

We very much liked this picture from Anne with the leaves alone in focus. We liked the complementary colours of the background and the shadows on the leaf.

Anne was pleased with her red bridge and reflections taken at the Botanics.

We liked Bob D's Laburnum in flower, taken in Malleny Garden with its light and shade.

Bob chose his picture taken above the fog / cloud on Hare Hill, Pentlands, at least in part because of the hard work getting high enough to take it!

Bob T took some beautiful flower pictures in the garden. This is the one he was most pleased with.

We also admired this one with its perfect exposure.
