Macro Flowers ~ Blue Hydrangeas

I'd like to welcome my newest follower, Icy BC. Please click on the name to follow her blog. She actually has several and you can check them out on her profile page.


These shots are all from different bunches of hydrangeas and at different stages of bloom.
They seem to be in plentiful supply right now and I took these shots as I was out for a walk.



At first I thought this bush was a also a hydrangea in late stages but upon closer inspection, the blossoms look quite different. maiaT from Macro Flowers helped me identify it as the Endless Summer, Twist and Shout which is a new hybrid of hydrangeas.
I am not used to taking macro photos and hope to practise by joining in with the Macro Flowers meme from time to time. I also found a meme for Weekend Flowers. Check them out.


Please join in by clicking on the badges to see some spectacularly beautiful flowers.
