Oh, how lovely, Sandy. It's gray and cold and spitting rain here in NJ, and this has really brightened my day! Did you get this recently? We don't get to enjoy flowers here year-round, as I'm sure you do in San Fran.

Sandy - Loved it when posted earlier, love it now. The implied triangle catches my eye, compositionally.

Did you post this before? It looks familiar to me! I love the colors & the way the flowers fill the frame!

Nice. You nailed the DOF in my opinion. Excellent detail as well.

Beautiful! Loved the colors and textures in this image. I also like how you have the front flowers in focus with an OOF background of the same flowers. I kind of wish that green spot on the left at 9:00 was cloned in with more flower petals but a very minor issue.

Eirini, yes, this was posted previously. I'm posting it again for the "All Stars Weeks" - see Bill's post in the Flora Forum. It's another chance for us to post shots that did not win a WP, for another chance now. You have several shots worthy of this, that I'd like to see again!
