Foxgloves

These beauties were one of a few
"other" species included in the display
at the rose garden in the Brooklyn Botanic.
I went there to shoot the roses, but thought the 

foxgloves deserved a closeup of their own.

  1. I'm a fan of foxgloves, too. The color, the shape...

    And I really like your new banner. Sorry not to be commenting more, but am 'on the road'.
