Sony A77
Minolta 200mm macro
ISO 400, 1/250 @ f16

Perhaps a little overactive imagination but I thought I saw a bird taking to flight while working this new pink calla we bought for our garden this week. All comments welcome.>=))>

Bill, This is pretty interesting. I see the bird shape for sure. It's certainly an interesting abstract. Panoramic flora macros are a bit rare, but I like it here.

Colorful Calla, colorful imagination! Works for me, though. That Minolta 200 must have a DOF like a microtome wide open, if this is what you get with f/16. frown

Another very cool floral semi-abstract, Bill. Certainly does look like a very graceful bird in flight. Well seen and captured. devil

Bill,

Not too much imagination for me, that was exactly what I'm seeing even before your comment. Prehistoric bird maybe, but still the same impression.

Your crop is intentional no doubt. Is there more room on the right to give the bird a little more room to take off? cool

Love the colors and overall impression.

Lon
