These have been flowering for a couple of weeks now, but early light is the
only time they look photogenic. Back at work and the weekend weather has
been poor. So when a sunny morning appeared I was out and found new
difficulties.....

Wellington is noted for its windiness. Add several large flower heads on top
of a long flexible stem and they move around rather a lot. Thankfully not
film as there are a lot of impressionistic shots ;-)

These are some of the better ones IMO, not pin sharp but not too bad.
