As you know I love Hosta and you have captured these bloom stems in a superbly artistic way that takes them to whole other level of beauty than just seeing them on the plant. Excellent choice with the horizontal and the colors and detail are wonderfully vibrant. No more sixes left, Deb, but another winner and calendar candidate. Ed.

I was so silly Ed- I used to clip these flower heads off then one year missed getting it done and was able to see how pretty they were in their own way. Now I like them....they DO make for interesting photos as well. Thank you so much for checking them out...knew you would like them...and, yes...calendar page for 2018!

Well way to spoil it BB. I was just on my way over for a Hosta Salad and now I find out that you do not indulge. Geez Louise. What a party poop. Oh well I luv ya any way. But you are Really pushing it. Love those lavender buds and the way they glow. I have a Giant Blue Hosta and a couple of Variegated varieties. They are such good shade plants. Great image here BB. Oh, I got some cool sunset shots last night and will post one on Facebook along with a pond shot. Ok, stay Warm BB ~ BB

Interesting. Looks like a big family popping up to say hello. Love the violet. Good highlighting; Like the dark green background; I first thought little pipes on an organ; looks like they're going to bloom soon; take care.

Comment from nikman
A very fine nature shot presented here! I simply love those two parallel branches(stems?). Your fine full and central composition gives us an enjoyable look at those very beautiful buds! Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done!

It was exactly that- the horizontal stems Nik- that grabbed my attention too. Thanks so much for the really fine review. I do appreciate it.
