This oriental poppy is called 'Mrs Perry' and it's a tall deciduous perennial that has bristly foliage and large, bowl-shaped salmon-pink flowers, blotched with dark purple at the base of each petal. This particular flower in the photograph grows in my mothers garden each year. But as you can see, she lost her petals and revealed something really interesting and intricate. My background is in documentary and lifestyle photography with a focus on landscapes, botanicals, nature and the art of the every day and my aim is to capture a feeling or atmosphere in my work from my surroundings and environment.
