Jungle covered mountains in Ream National Park, east of Sihanoukville. Most national parks in Cambodia are but leftovers they forgot to kill during the years of jungle-monetization in the postwar era of previous and current government. Hence expect nothing spectacular, just normal jungle as far as surviving all attacks by humans to cut all huge jungle trees to finance government and military or for profit. Hence all the current national parks are but small remainders of the once huge Cambodian jungle nature that existed until mid seventies in the Kingdom.

Beautiful rose with sunflower background. In today's flower photo session in Baguio City, I was missing my favorite ornamental peanut plant as natural g reen background for the beautiful flowers. Hence I experimented with the natural background colors of Burnham park's other flowers in bloom these days.
With many dahlia and sunflowers in bloom - here one of my shots with my new Sony A900 from a beautiful pink rose and a sunflower as background.

Filming the 10th anniversary show at Tatton Park has been a real treat for the team. Huge crowds turned up for the filming of our closing piece to camera featuring Joe Swift, Carol Klein and Rachel de Thame. It only took 18 takes for our esteemed talent to trip the light fantastic up Chris Beardsaw's garden and sample some '10th anniversary Tatton' cupcakes which were given out to all children under 15 who visited the show. Remember, kids go free! 'Have a go Joe' had a go at making a 'lunkie' also known as a 'smoot'. The crowds loved his attempt at thatching. He was offered a stick in the rural crafts marquee but as he quipped, he's hopefully not going to need that for sometime yet! Joe also went all artistic as he turned his hand to willow sculpting when he made two ears for a hare. Carol was at home in the floral marquee where of course she used to be an exhibitor. She was amazed by the high standard of the plants, in fact she's convinced that this year was the highest standard she's ever seen. Her highlights were the Hampshire carnivorous plants and Southfields nursery stands both of which won gold medals. Carol was also a bit partial to the perennials in the marquee which were fabulous this year due to the weather conditions having been particularly good in helping them get to peak performance at the right time. Rachel's enjoyed a blooming good time in the BFA marquee where eight of Britain's top florists competed for the title of 'Florist of the year'. She was on the sidelines as the competitors had to complete a surprise challenge, they had to create a floral masterpiece with a random selection of blooms, bits and bobs.
