Aug 11, 2013		     What a great composition, such a simple image! It just works, not sure why high in my favourites.

Aug 10, 2013		     i prefer the main entry . Bing Crosby was one of the many to record this lovely song

Aug 10, 2013		     tvsometime, shot in natural light (8:33am), no flash, handheld. The only thing done other than normal sharpening was to use CS6 spot healing brush to remove a dead distracting flower from the lower right. If you look closely you can see a faint yellow. Should have mentioned this in post-processing, but had forgotten until I just now went to the original to get the time. This was taken on a field trip with my photography club to a nearby nature preserve.

Aug 10, 2013		     Thanks, everyone. I was so caught up on the sunshine idea that I did not see that the flower looks like a singer. Missed a great opportunity for extra info comment

Aug 10, 2013		     Cute! And oddly compelling; a flower with human personality.

Aug 10, 2013		     When I saw this and saw your song title because of the leaf arrangement I could see this flower singing the song
