"Stolen Hearts"

These Bleeding Hearts don't grow in our garden. I had to "steal" them from our neighbour's garden by pushing my lens through the fence, heehee:

I LOVE the compo on that first one...with the arch of the stem, backlighting and strong colours.

Don't know if you know..but thay are also called "Dutchmans trousers" I'm not sure if you divide these or take cuttings (Boon would be able to tell you) but ask your neighbour, I'm sure theyll grow in your garden and quite quickly too. I bought a small plant a year ago now and it#s already grown into quite a large bush.
Nice shots anyway, think I'd go with the first.

So you all like 1 best?
And that is the only total crop ... the original is horizontal and has very many distracting too-bright-and-out-of-focus leaves in it, so I decided they would need to go --- and this was the result. Hey, I'm happy to hear I did the right thing then.
