Wow! Sound the horns! They look like trumpets saying, "Look at us!"; nice bright colors; good contrast of greenery and blooms; very good focus; like the touch of pink on top; oh, the little "antennas" reaching out to everyone. You know a lot of flowers/trees. Take care.

    They put all my other less exotic AZALEAS to shame Sean... I think the plainer ones whisper nasty things about them. lol Well me and the fancy pants AZALEAS thank you so much for the wonderful review, gold star and 'good show' Seriously though, I do really appreciate this. Thank you.

Excellent shot of the "King" and "Queen" Azaleas in your garden, Deborah and what lovely colours - thank you for your informative notes, also. The softened background foliage makes a perfect frame in the early morning light. Excellent focus. Beautiful composition. Suzanne

And a right royal pair they make too! Your full frontal and central composition provides us with a very enjoyable look at your lovely blooms! Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely taken!

Comment from Malmax


This pair of azaleas are gorgeous and have such a unique color that I don't think I've ever seen before. The movement of the stamens captured is magnificent. I love the inner pink and purple tones to the flowers. The rainbow of color in these flowers really makes them special and I can see why you titled it this way.
Beautifully set against the gorgeous green, and so interestingly different.

nice capture of the flowers, but the colors and saturation looks a bit over done

good angle of shot and composition

thanks for sharing

    tsk tsk gg These colors are true and natural. Rather expected you'd be finding an issue w/ this one. Such a shame you know.
