ABOUT THESE IMAGES
WAKEHURST PLACE IN SUSSEX IS THE NATIONAL TRUST’S MOST POPULAR PROPERTY. IT IS ALSO HOME TO
KEW GARDEN’S MILLENNIUM SEEDBANK. I VISITED WAKEHURST FOR THE FIRST TIME IN AUGUST 2011 TO
PHOTOGRAPH ITS FLOWERS. I HAD NO PRECONCEIVED IDEAS, OTHER THAN TO SEEK OUT SOMETHING
UNUSUAL. IN TRUTH, I DIDN’T FIND ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY WHICH MEANT IT WAS DOWN TO ME TO
BE AS CREATIVE AS POSSIBLE IN HOW I SHOT THINGS. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, A PLAN EMERGED. THERE
APPEARED TO BE QUITE A LOT OF BLUE FLOWERS IN BLOOM, INCLUDING ONE OF MY FAVOURITES
AGAPANTHUR. FOR THE REST OF THE DAY, I SOUGHT ONLY FLOWERS THAT WERE BLUE. THE END RESULT IS, I
THINK, A SET OF INTERESTING IMAGES LINKED BY COLOUR EVEN THOUGH NOT ALL OF THEM WERE QUITE AS
TRUE BLUE AS THEY APPEARED TO BE AT WAKEHURST. I HOPE YOU LIKE THEM!
