This is so pretty. I've read the comments, and Artie and Gary are so much fun, they are also alot of help. I read your comment and know exactly what you're saying. But, these two guys make it so much fun. Every time I go out now I think of what they say, and it does help me alot to look at new things. Feels good tho to hear there is someone else that can express exactly how I feel, the part about seeing these things til after the photograph. Also feels good to hear Gary has a big trash can.....Ha Ha. I still like this picture very, very, very much.
Gary, thanks for the observations. I agree, especially about the stem. Artie, now that the idea is in my head ... I'd like to see that shot myself, unfortunately this is a shot that is a few weeks old and some cold weather came a long and zapped the cluster of flowers. I guess the secret of being a good photographer is seeing the image before you take the photograph. I'm agreeing with both you guys everytime ... your comments make perfect sense ... but I don't see these thing til after the photograph. I'm working on it. :)
Gary pretty much said it on this image but I'll add also, if this is a site you can go back to Richard; it would really be interesting to see this same structure you laid out here but shot from a lower angle looking up into the flowers.......
