Jul 5, 2010		     Very nice finding for the theme. Especially the water drops are great.
The three blossoms are arranged to each other like galaxies in the outer space (no, I'm not drinking while commenting... LOL!) it's just so typical nature ;-)
Nice circles.

Jul 2, 2010		     Jade: Thanks. I don't understand your problem with the exposure but maybe it looks better on my monitor. I agree with you on the red flowers - Panasonic chips seem to have a hard time with red in general. My tip is to stick to the golden hours and carry a spray bottle.

raf: Thanks - that's a huge compliment considering your work! Maybe I overdid it with the brightness control. I totally agree about the edges but have no idea how to add a vignette.

Jul 2, 2010		     Better than any flower shot I have done. Natures circle through other shapes is a good get I think. Perhaps it is my monitor but I feel I would have dropped exposure overall by about .5 and a little more around the edges. But that is probably a taste thing. First cut favourite.

Jul 1, 2010		     A rich image which looks in sharp focus -- what I can't shake is the sense that the center of the flower is not properly exposed. I find red flowers in sun light impossible to capture well so I'd love to know if you do anything special to catch such natural light and colour.
