For many of these photographs I was using my fish-eye lens which I used for this image.<\/p>\n<p>I got low down on the ground to show the summerhouse and the arbour which is covered with\u00a0 a golden hop and a couple of clematis plants.\u00a0 The clematis on the left of the arbour is white and some of the blooms have dropped petals on the lawn &#8211; these I made a conscious decision to leave as they form part of the story.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things that made these photos is the sky:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3984p1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3647 aligncenter\" alt=\"arbour and sky\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3984p1-399x600.jpg\" width=\"399\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3984p1-399x600.jpg 399w, https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3984p1-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3984p1.jpg 413w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 399px) 85vw, 399px\" \/><\/a>I love the effect of these high wispy clouds. They look blurred as if I had taken a long exposure image, but this was a normal, sub-second exposure. Some might not like the sky but for me it is an essential part of the composition.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I include this view of the summerhouse framed by the white flower and yellow foliage:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3999p1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3645 aligncenter\" alt=\"E14_3999p1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3999p1-600x400.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3999p1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3999p1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pmstudios.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/E14_3999p1.jpg 930w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>With the fish-eye lens there is amazing depth of field &#8211; both the white flower and the summer house are in focus. However, you can see the distortion made to the frame of the arbour on the right &#8211; it is distinctly curved.
