Misty autumn morning at Hyde Hall

It was a misty autumn morning at Hyde Hall last week. Many of the images have a white background created by the mist. The white mist really brings out the colour contrast of the plants in the images. The yellows reds and purples contrast better with the mist than they would with a blue sky. The close up of the purple berries of “Callicarpa bodinieri Profusion – Beauty Berry” are really striking. The depth of field technique highlights the red hot poker (Kniphofia). This is striking in close up, particularly with the red Sedum behind it as a carpet.

Its amazing to reflect how there is so much different colour at Hyde Hall as the seasons roll by.
