These are tiny little flowers that creep on the ground and are rather difficult to get with clean backgrounds. There are a great many pea flowers ranging from shrubs to ground covers here in Australia.

This was shot with my little walkaround camera, the Nikon D5300 with 40mm macro lens. F8, ISO 400, 1/250sec. HH.

Hi

A nice little shot that shows off this plant well - I like it

I guess the backdrop could be better, but ground cover plants are always going to be a bit hit and miss in that regard

All the best
Matthew

Fine group of flowers - a good background given that you were shooting down.

The flowers stand out well in this difficult shot. Bright white edges just behind them is a little distracting, but it's a minor detail. Lovely!
