Just got back from a trip to the mountains for a few days and realised I have quite a backlog of photos to go through. So here's a whole bunch of red things. It feels like a red day today...

• Magnolia 'Old Port'
• Trillium
• Sarcococca berries
• Osteospermum

Closeup of a trillium flower. It has 3 deep red petals with dark veining, standing erect from the 3 spotted leaves that surround it. There's a bit of fallen twig & leaf from another plant on one of the leaves.
Closeup of a small cluster of rich-red berries. There's only a narrow depth of field, so much of each berry is out of focus, and the background is all blurry
Closeup on the centre of a bright red osteospermum flower. The petals look ridged, pointing down toward the middle of the flower, which has many small upright pillars (anthers) covered in pollen. There are a few shiny black unopened anthers in the very centre

Forgive my selfishness in posting an osteospermum today. I find them incredibly photogenic, and if I post them a little too often, well...I could have worse flaws...surely?

A bone-white osteospermum flowering happily in the middle of Winter.

There are colours on this photo that I didn't see at the time - the beauty of macro photography where things only really become visible when seen blown up larger than real life.
