5 in 5 in yellow

By some strange coincidence Sandie and Maggie also went with a colour theme for their 5 in 5 in July collections.

Taking advantage of a pleasantly warm and sunny day we went for a walk through a local park (which was created on the old clay digging site for the local potteries)

around the edge of the pond is an abundance of yellow iris plants

with plenty of bright blooms

and amazing reflections in the water

Thanks to Sandie for her lovely monthly prompt to share 5 photos taken in 5 minutes – you can see what others have done on her blog.

Just wonderful Helena, I love how you lead my eye in closer then down, those reflections are wonderful and yellow is such a cheerful colour what ever the weather.

These are lovely snaps - and 5 is just enough to make us feel as though we were there too.
