Sorry I only get to reviewing this now. Glad to see you have some flowers too and not just snow. Looks like you are getting to know your new digital friend. This is a stunning photo. i love the fact that you left if as it is and use the less the perfect one. Arent we all like that. Missing some thing. Perfect lighting, focus and clarity here. Hope all is well on your side of the world. Say hi some time. Best wishes. Marie

I know you got more than 20 hands full and will certainly be missing you even more around here, however, being excited for you tames the 'missing pain'! Yep, is nice to have a few flowers instead of a lot of snow but lately been wishin' I was in SA for the cooler weather! Certainly know I missin' something and probably a lot of somethings I have not figured out yet 'cause the brain be a slow mover these days!! Planning to sit down and write you a note Sunday AM. Still don't know the prognosis of my brother yet and am a bit stagnated worrying about him---Please, have fun and most of all be safe with your projects not working yourself to the bone! Thank you so much for your wonderful review and somehow finding time to even review! It is always a thrill to hear from you!! My very best to you! Deb
Comment from Aether
Wonderful technicals and a poetic artist's note to boot. Nothing short of exceptional. Glad I still have one for this month. I like the isolation from background and the sharp detail in a defuse light. Very well done.

Comment from Supersammi
This picture is wonderful. The flower jumps right off the screen at you. The vividness of the petals is completely wonderful.

Comment from nituathaill
Lovely. I think the colors really pop with that darkened background, and your highlight adjustment has paid off magnificently in incredible detail. I love the asymmetrical composition, and the way you've bottom weighted the flower (more petals near the 'base' of the frame) gives it a very solid presentation. The downer for me was the top petals leaving the focal plane, but on the whole this is a really beautiful shot!

Comment from Shade
Nice job Low. The flower has good character with the missing petals. Colors are good and the background excellent. Depth of field is perhaps a touch shallow but not enough to take away from the composition. Congrats on a great work!

This is such a beautifully captured flower and in reading your notes,I was impressed when you wrote that the flower reminded you of yourself-less than perfect :) That was wonderfully written to go along with this beautiful memory you created.Thanks for sharing the beautiful photo.

Comment from azwoman112
Hi Deb ! I love the topic of this picture. Abeautiful view of this flower . But I feel the black background absorbed all the light to set this off and make it pop for you. This is with you old camera right? Overall a very pretty view.
I hope we see more with your new digital. xxoo AZ

Low try using a soft artificial light source if you did this indoors. Then go to google and type in Picassa and download it . It is a great free photo program from google. You can do alot fromit. :) Love you ..AZ
Comment from lox83
This is gorgous, especially the imperfection, I love the graduating colour on the petals, like a sunset or sunrise. The dark background gives this great impact and the detail is excellent.
