Cellpic Sunday: Pink Peony
Posted on June 1, 2025
Madame loves peonies – especially pink ones. Over the years we haven’t had consistent success with growing them, but this year there was a bumper crop.
Cellpic Sunday: Pretty in pink
Posted on May 11, 2025
We were in the town of Beverley in Yorkshire last week and I came across this rather lovely flower in somebody’s front garden.
Cellpic Sunday: Incongruous Pink
Posted on January 5, 2025
The French countryside is pretty rugged, especially in the winter, and any signs of human habitation or exploitation are usually no more than utilitarian and predominantly in shades of brown or green.
Accordingly, it was a little unusual to find that this nearby farm gate was secured with a tie in two shades of pink.
Cellpic Sunday: Late bloomer
Posted on October 28, 2024
It’s been warmer than usual so far this autumn, which may explain why, even at the end of October, some flowers are blooming and clearly still have more to offer..

As usual, I have no idea what these flowers are called, but they’re certainly delicate.

These roses in our son’s garden in Oxfordshire were a particularly delicate shade of pink.

The theme for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is certainly a broad one: ‘found in nature’. It’s almost harder to find something that isn’t.
A Pink Poker
Posted on July 21, 2021
This week’s Fun Foto (sic) Challenge has the theme of ‘Pink’. I really did try very hard to avoid the cliché of posting a straightforward picture of a flower of said hue.
Unfortunately I lack both the imagination or the depth of archive to avoid the floral world entirely. However, with some judicious cropping, framing and other editing I managed to produce this quasi-abstract image of the flower usually called ‘Red Hot Poker’ – although this one actually was pink.
Pink Enough?

Eglantine
Posted on October 14, 2020
I believe that this variety of rose is known as Eglantine and it’s a very old one. It’s also pink, with a yellow heart, so suitable for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week.
