Bog Asphodel
I found a few exceptional plants while exploring the bogland. Here’s a first one.
Bog Asphodel with its star-like yellow flowers is a typical swamp plant, but has become rather rare nowadays, largely as a result of the widespread drainage of wet habitats and stands on the Red List of threatened species !
It was quite a job to photograph it in the middle of the swamp.
Location : nature reserve ‘Hohes Venn’ (Baraque Michel - Belgium)
Dutch name : Beenbreek
German name : Beinbrech (syn. Moorlilie)
Latin name : Narthecium ossifragum

A beautiful little plant and a fine photograph. I can imagine you standing up to your ankles in the bog just having to get the best angle of it.cheers, Adele

I think that there is no any swamp to stop you taking photos :-) And it is our luck to know more beauty of the hidden nature. Thanks for this special one.Hugs, Kati

Beautiful flowers. Do you use a telephoto lens? I often use my 300mm lens to get close-ups of difficult to reach plantsLovely shot. I like the dof
