I do like this pairing with complementary colors and pose. The DOF is just right without too much obtrusion from the bg. :toast:

Hi Bill, thanks for posting nice image of these two flowers. I have also some photos but until now I was searching for prper identification. I like the image composition with two different flowers, Nicely done. :smile:

Another nice combination. The flowers are well rendered, and I really like the soft, natural background. Well done, Bill.

A very nice pair Bill. I am amazed by the blooms that you already have in full swing. I think the two day lilies are my favorite, with this one coming in second.

Your gardener has a great eye for complementary colors! These two go very well together. I like your dof choice and all the details, especially in the cleome.

I see another winning combination of complimentary colors, it's a wonderful pairing of these two..
Excellent use of F/8 to bring them both in, and keep that BG soft too.
Very good details, technically right on the money Bill:toast: :toast:
