You know, Brigitte, this is not a comp that I would have thought to take; but I love how it turned out. Great use of color, shape, and DOF. Wonderful photo. You inspire me!

Wow, This really makes my eyes open wide to take it all in. It's like a party of color. The sharp details and shallow DOF concentrating on the petal help me find more than just color, though. (The colors where I live are mostly white and brown, but the purple and green skunk cabbage is starting to sprout.)

Brigitte: Been away for a few days so please excuse my tardy comment. Just a color junkie's delight. I love your comp and DOF/POF choice. Most excellent. >=))>

Oh! wonderful!! And fun. Great contrasts of shape and color and perfect selective focus. Love it, Brigitte. It's just the mood for Spring. Would make a great event poster, too!
