Sorry for taking my first upload down again. I had some good advise from Bob (Dunstickin) and Tick (0930_23) and decided to follow it, well, almost anyway :-). Instead of cropping the photo I decided to clone out the tree trunk. So here is my upload for FF once again. Hope you like it.

All comments are most welcome. I thank you in advance for taking the time. Always greatly appreciated!

They look so lovely set against the green background, the exposure looks to be right on, for the detail. Tigs♥ =^..^=

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

I like it better Susanne and the cloning was a good idea. DOF remains the main attraction.
Have a good weekend.

Think it's wise not to ignore the advice of these experienced friends, Susanne. I didn't see the original one, but take for granted that the image has been improved. Thanks to both the Owd Mucker (Bob), the Owd Fella (Tick aka OFT) and you for this very fine F² image.

Regards, Cornelius.

I think it's magical the way it proceeds from a pink bud to a white flower. Very pretty, Suzanne.

I didn't see the first one but this looks very good Susanne. The buds and flowers stand out so well against the blurred background.

Nice shot, Susanne, but you shouldn't always listen to the others, especially not men. LOL
