Kew - Close-up and Abstract

When it comes to flower photography, I don't believe there is any right or wrong way to do it.  All that matters is what you enjoy and what works for you.  One thing I particularly enjoy doing is getting as close up as possible to the subject.  I like to concentrate on just a small part of the flower, often with a small depth of field.  At Kew, I spent ages in the 'Rhododendron Dell' trying to pick out the stamen of the different coloured flowers.  Frankly, I could have spent all day there, but eventually I moved on to other things.
