Botanic Gardens in Cambridge are at their best as regards spring flowers at the moment and looked extra good in the morning sunshine after overnight rain. I was using an old film camera 50 mm lens which gives very soft backgrounds for some of the shots and the modern 90mm macro for the rest.
The Old Rectory garden in Caldecote is open this weekend for Coffees and Teas (10.30-17.30 17th and 18th May 2025). It was looking very good yesterday when I took a few photos of the wilder areas - plenty more to see including formal areas and a pond with water features etc.We walked across from Toft through the wonderful Buttercup meadows - the Yellow Rattle is already in bloom.
