📷 Heather in bloom. Iceland

in #photography7 years ago

   It's a Common Heather — Calluna vulgaris. Shooted in Iceland this beautiful Northern summer... I never would have thought that Heather is such as you can see here. I identified the plant after arrival home by shuffling of the Internet pictures in Google.

   By the way, has anyone tried the Heather honey? Or it is quite the delicacy? Here in Russia I didn't see it yet. Accordings to the legends it should be delicious... :)

P.S. If you open the picture in full size (photo is clickable and I recommend to do so) — it would look better ;)

OLYMPUS Pen E-PL7. 60 mm. 1/500 sec. F 2.8. ISO 100.

Beautiful flowers, especially I like the pink-violet colours. :)

I like this color too) thanks!

Beautiful tiny flowers, typical northern plant.

Yes, it is. It's so small, but very nice!)

A great post @kibela. I agree with your opinion that this heather flower can not be found here.

Thank you!)
But that's sad a little... So, I'll try to see it again there in Iceland)
