Ixia failure

There was the most beautiful patch of Ixias in a friend's garden today that were crying out to be blipped.

I loved the slender stems, they way they criss-crossed each other and moved in a rather mesmerising way in the breeze. The colour of the blossoms faded from butter to ivory as they aged. And the buds were striking in their contrasting butter and scarlet.

I have managed to get none of that in this.

Abject failure.

I may go back and try again.
