Post by Gruditch »

Hi all, the BC have asked me if I can source an image for a promotional leaflet for them.

They are looking for nothing too close (preferably something bright coloured Peacock/Painted Lady/Red Admiral/Small Tort) on a garden flower with the suggestion of a garden in the background, must be a garden flower, not a wild flower. Does anyone have anything like that.

Hi Gary,

I have a Peacock on Aubretia taken in my back garden. It's in my album in the gallery. Your welcome to that if it's any good.
I have a high res copy.

Gary,

I have several images of comma/peacocks on sedum - these any use. I also have a red admiral on apple with garden background but I assume that breaks your brief to much.

Hi Gary,

I have a few that may fit the bill, but are too big for UKB. Could I email them to you?

Cheers

Hi Lee, you can contact me trough the "The Team" section. I have a feeling though, that they are looking for something that just doesn't exist. :cry:

You/They don't say what they're really after but here's a couple of 'flower in the garden' shots, most with space for dialogue

I get the feeling that going out in the height of summer and taking the right shot would be easy - finding one now is difficult though!

Have you looked through Flickr?

Here are some that I found, possibly not exactly what you're after, but there must be something out there...

Thanks all, as they have now gone silent, I think they must have what their looking for.

I was informed today that I will have the great honour and privilege of having my photo used for the new leaflet.

I know.....I can't believe it either. I will be a published photographer. :shock:
But I am well chuffed to have been chosen. :D
