Cowslips

 These were found growing in a verge by the side of a footpath near a main road. I'm used to seeing them growing in the wild!

The name Cowslip is said to derive from Cow's slop because it is often found growing near cow dung.

Some indoor macros

 Just playing with my macro stuff, trying to work out a good portable light set up using my flash on a ball and socket head on a bracket. A bit loose but doable. The images are a bit underexposed though prior to editing with Snapseed on my phone.
