Smashing flora Eve!! Lotsa great color pouring out of them and sweet details and lines!! The framing is spot on and the use of the primary coloring totally works with this image!!
I love pink, and I adore this image, Lyn. My own astilbe never gets to this wonderful shade of pink. Great capture and I agree entirely with HottRockin that the matt and frame both compliment the image perfectly.

I have to agree with Papi11on...I've tried to get this stuff to grow in my spring garden for years, but it never gets anywhere near this big and fluffy. So this is what it's supposed to look like..lol..do you think if I showed the plants the picture that they'd get the idea? No, probably not..sigh..at least I have this to look at as a dream of ..if only..very pretty pic and I like the way the color gently fades off to the right in such a dreamy fashion. You KNOW I saved this one.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I am very fond of astilbes, although my plantings are not as lush as these. You photo is superior and, as always, your framing complements it perfectly.
So this is what keeps Fairies from having costly dental repair ... Pretty picture Eve ... well composed and well in focus ... as is so customary with all your posts.
Love that frame. How did you ever come up with that unique title? I love it. Never thought of it that way. Beautiful pink colors. It deserves the high marks it got.
