Fair Gardening
An hour before the fair opened. Noin tuntia ennen messujen avaamista. Ungefär en time före mässan öppnade. This week has been super busy, but also quite exciting. There was quite a bit of planning beforehand, but the real effort has been from Tuesday to Wednesday in building a 68 m² fair garden for my employer Kekkilä.

Camera gardening – a start
Welcome to my blog! To begin with the masthead features (from left to right): A small cupped narcissi which’s name I’ve forgotten, some white Pulsatilla vulgaris, an Erythronium I found in my Grandmother’s garden, a Plagioreghma dubia, Anemonopsis macrophylla and a white/pink Cypripedium reginae with Cypripedium ‘Ulla Silkens’ in the background. -HA Edit: 22nd November 2014: the new masthead shows a small cupped narcissi, the same Erythronium (probably a white Erythronium dens-canis) and on the right side of the title Anemonopsis macrophylla and a white/pink Cypripedium reginae.
