Happy Sunday y’all! #Repost @flowerpowerdaily_ ・・・ This photo of a “salad burnet flower” by Ian Gilmour won 2nd place at the International Garden Photographer of the Year awards. “It is only with a macro lens that the true beauty of these tiny flowers of Sanguisorba minor can be appreciated,” said Gilmour who took this shot in West Yorkshire, England. These images are currently being shown at Sissinghurst Castle (@sissinghurstcastlegardennt) as part of the International Garden Photographer of the Year awards, which is the world's premier competition and exhibition specializing in garden, plant and flower photography. 🌼 It is supported by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London.
