Hi All 👋 My latest post for Cee’s FOTD.
We’re now moving on to Culzean Castle & its grounds in Ayrshire for the next series of flowers & settings
Allium ursinum, also known as wild garlic, ramsons, cowleekes, cows’s leek, cowleek, buckrams, broad-leaved garlic, wood garlic, bear leek, Eurasian wild garlic or bear’s garlic. It is native to Europe and Asia, where it grows in moist woodland. It is a wild relative of onion and garlic, all belonging to the same genus, Allium.As with Thursday’s fuchsia, I added a picture of Culzean castle into the AI prompt to ensure it featured in the background. My setting for the wild garlic is its natural habitat of woodland, with the castle in the background. I then did a series of style edits (carousel): golden hour lighting, night, storm, dystopian, futurism… enjoy
