    I'm with you - I'll never tire of photographing flowers! The Queen of the Night is beautiful and I especially like #3 - it's wonderfully balanced and the dark background sets off the intense yellow of the flowers.

    Cheers, Sara

    Yeah... never quit Don! Beautiful work! Luv luv, luv #2!
    We have a night bloomer like that with nine buds ready to pop... maybe tonight.
    I'm under orders to not touch it... I knocked it over last time, and broke it, trying to capture the blooms... rolleyes1.gif

    Liking #2; one of my favorite blooms! Great detail and I think if you brought the blacks up to show off the neon green stems in the center it would really pop and a truer color for the bloom. :)
