Photographed over a few years in my now late mother’s garden, this collection is a tribute to her and her love of flowers.

Shot on an iPhone 12 Pro Max, using portrait mode > stage lighting, with little or no image manipulation, these delightfully powerful images show just a little of the diversity of plants in that glorious country garden.

Roses were mum’s favourite, and I could probably fill multiple calendars with the many varieties she grew; however the colours and vibrance of all the other flowers were just as important to her.

I hope you enjoy this collection throughout the year, and please, take a little time out occasionally to stop and smell them roses.
