Description

Supine: The position of the body when lying on one's back, face up. (As opposed to prone, which is face down.) This is Campanula, commonly known as "Canterbury Bells," or "Bellflower." I discovered them growing in a grassy ditch in my neighborhood. They had fallen over, which makes it look like I've posted the image the wrong way 'round. It really is right-side-up, though. Check out the grass. I didn't even have to sneak into anyone's yard to get this shot!

Laying in the grass is the perfect place for this beautiful branch of Campanula!!! You must have a gorgeous neighborhood??!!!! Are you having fog right now??? I really don't like driving in it!! This summer weather has been a roller coaster ride for all of us!!!!!

Named after Roy Campanula, who was catcher for the Brooklyn Dodgers many decades ago. Great violet-blue colors, light/shadow effects, and clarity in this lovely ditch photo, Tara! A superb sublime shot of the supine specimens.

OHH yeah! I love them. We have many of them around here and they also remind me of my childhoods happy summertimes not far from here. (We called them "Bell Flowers"). Ofcause that is why I love them so. Gorgeous shot, Tara. Thanks for sharing it. :)))
