These last three photos are very pretty, but I like this one the best. It's the strong, warm colors of the flower against the dark background that captured me. Did you darken the green for this effect?

Forgot to mention, the wind has made it look a bit wild and animated...you know I love how you see the world!

thank you, Pam... I love sharing these photos with you -- sometimes it feels like this is an exhibit made especially for your "viewing pleasure" ;-) hee hee....

I like this one best as well. It's the most painterly. And yes, I did enhance the shadows in the original photo, resulting in the darker background. I think it makes the flower petals -- and the light on the petals -- really pop. Thanks for your comments, my dear.
