Sweet Scents

After a great concert last night, despite the sweltering heat even in the church, today was mainly spent quietly on the patio under the much needed shade of a parasol, lapping up the sweet scents of the Honeysuckle and Jasmine nearby.

This is the Honeysuckle, for which I tried a "high key" treatment using the creamy coloured parasol as background and cardboard to act as a reflector - just about all the effort to setup one wants to take in this weather!
