nfoto Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Rørslett, B. 2014. Convolvulus arvensis L. (Convolvulaceae). Field Bindweed. Flowers photographed in visible and ultraviolet light. http://www.ultravioletphotography.com/content/index.php?/topic/868-convolvulus-arvensis-field-bindweed/ Convolvolus arvensis L.NO: ÅkervindelSE: ÅkervindaDK: Ager-SnerleFI: Peltokierto DE: Acker-Winde EN: Field Bindweed; Lesser Bindweed This is a perennial climbing or twining vine, often occurring in disturbed habitats such as road verges, sea shores, or agricultural fields. It is native to Europe and widely introduced elsewhere. The pretty funnelshaped flowers are variously coloured from a creamy white to a deep pink, and are eagerly visited by many pollinating creatures small or large. C. arvensis flowers, often profusely, from late spring until late autumn. Plants photographed in a fallow field outside Copenhagen, Denmark, 28 June 1014. Image reference: CONV_ARV_B1406281431_VIS.jpgVisible light: Nikon Df, Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 125 mm f/2.5 lens, daylight. Image reference: CONV_ARV_I1406281920_UV.jpgUltraviolet light: Nikon D3200 (modified), Coastal Optics 60 mm f/4 lens, internal Baader U2"(Venus) filter, SB-140 flash. Like other members of this family, such as Calystegia spp., C. arvensis has extensive areas with conical cells on its corolla. This renders the otherwise moderately UV-reflective corolla with a bright shimmering effect. [Published 30 June 2014] Link to comment
