Really nice lighting and composure.. the arcing grass blade over the top is a good touch in my opinion...

I like this one a lot Charles. It's got Matisse's linked arms from the Dancers in the bg and the subject could be from Rodin's drawings of dancers. My guess though is that if I carry that analogy through, the flower and leaves should all be more blurred. Love the energy and the composition. Distinctive, original work, exceptionally well presented for my tastes.

Beautiful lighting and framing, Charles. I would have loved to have seen a 1200x500 image. I like this :toast:
