Thanks to John and Markus for the help on identifying the aquilegia flower, much appreciated. Today I found out some more escapees from gardens, not far away from home. These were differently colored than the first ones.
What we are wondering with the wife is whether, if you collect and plant the seeds, the next generation will have similar or different flowers than the original ones?
Here in Finland we have quite a lot of plants which have escaped from gardens to nature. Some are beautiful, such as aquilegia and lupin shown here, but some are quite harmful - invasive alien species - replacing native plants and destroying parts of the environment. Some say that lupin is such a species, but I like it.

hi there juha,
i shoot primarily with an lx3 as well, and i'm wondering what settings you're using to get the colour images that you do?
cheers,
aaron
Well, here are the basic settings: film mode standard with NR at -2 and saturation at +1, ISO 100, i.exposure at low, otherwise nothing noteworthy.
thanks!
i'll give it a try tomorrow.
Actually, these setting were a bit of a mistake, I thought I had set saturation at 0 and i.exposure off. I'm now using these settings instead of those I mentioned before. (I probably switched to the "wrong" settings by mistake when setting on the 1:1 aspect ratio.)
