When I looked back at this photo on my PC it occurred to me that there seem to be tiny men gardening the flowers...

Good afternoon Sir Paul, how in the world could anybody ever top these last two postings of yours??? You have taken floral photography to the highest level to be sure! An absolute genious couldn't improve on this shot! It is striking indeed, like none other I've seen! Now Paul, you must have imagined by now, that 'Webster' has run out of adjectives for my use!! I have five dictionaries, and I am banned from their use, as I have emptied the word supply! Teasing, but surely you have gone to new heights with your display of floral photography! Because of my excitement over your accomplishments in this area, the size of your head will grow so large, no one will dare to photograph even a dandelion! You have scared me away, even little old me, a total novice forever!! Now, is that nice? Seriously, it truely is beautiful and into my favs it goes! As I have mentioned to you in the past, I must consider charging you rent for my 'hotel' space! LOL, LOL! I hope you are enjoying our lovely spring! Sincerely, Marilyn

PS, I now have 'Photoshop', so you should be aware! I can now bring more life to my images!! LOL! Be on guard please, while it may take me a yr to learn the program! LOL! On second thought, maybe you need not worry after all! LOL! Marilyn

Another superb image Paul! I especially like the illuminated lacy edges and soft down of center. Just plain gorgeous. High marks from me and job well done!

Every morning I will rest my arms a while upon the windowsill of heaven, gaze upon God, and with that vision in my heart turn strong to meet my day.

Impressive details Paul. Perfect example of a successful macro. Pin sharp, well composed, vivid colours and interesting subject - they all make it an exceptionally good photo.

Truly, Paul, this Orchid is sensuous and you captured the most lovely flower in a most tender and beautiful way. Not only close up but the colours are just fantastic.Flowers and men and women..., so much alike in so many ways...God really knew what He was doing when he made all of us and of course the flowers He made set the way for all other things, I do believe....thank you for this beauty.
