    Great shot. The conversion work you've chosen suits my eye really well.thumb.gif

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Love this shot Don! Is this a crop or the original size? I would be interested to see a crop with just a bit more air to the left of the flower and a bit less of those two short angled branches going off to the right. But that is very nit-picky. It's really great!

    Orv, David, Tom, Sara, thanks. Sara, it's basically uncropped, except what I lost when I straightened it slightly, so there's no room for tinkering in that department.

    Nothing's wrong with you. :D I can't count the number of times I've seen people raving about a photo I didn't like. Tastes vary.

    Yes, there's a wall. These are growing at the side of one of our busier streets. I'd spotted them driving by and made a note to return with my camera.

    I don't know where I'm going, but I'm going anyway.

    Wonderful!!! Like this lots! It has a 3D look. Bringing up some mid tones might make it stand out all the more?

    Phil, AnnaMaria, thanks. In this case, AnnaMaria, I really wanted the bright blossom set off against a bunch of dark tones, so I wouldn't be inclined to brighten anything.
