No enhancement needed on this Lyn. They do look like birds in flight. Great angle with the blue sky for a backdrop.

Orange blossoms sure look great against the sky. A wonderful flower from Paradise itself.

Oh these are my absolute favourites. They're native to the Canary Islands, where I work from time to time, and they always make me think of there. Also of my grandfather, who brought one back from a cruise and got it to flourish in his greenhouse. I like the way you presented this one Lyn, just stark and angular against the sky; and as always the Panasonic has rendered the colours wonderfully.
