Day #167Title: Iron Out The Wrinkles
Location: Danubury Park
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 50mm EF f/1.8 + 12mm extension tube
Notes: Years ago, I was made to go on a camping trip with the school to Danbury Park. It hammered with rain non-stop, and we had a thoroughly miserable week. I’ve been traumatised by camping and have steered clear of Danbury Park ever since! But today, I decided to take a trip out to the Lakes area of the park for some pictures. The sun was in and out, as were the bees on the flowers. I happened to spot this curiousity on my way back to the car – it was a clump of plants growing at the water’s edge. Some of the leaves were completely smooth, and others (often belonging to the same plant) were all wrinkled. I wonder why that happens?
