This turned out nicely, Carol. The colors are pretty and the two-toned effect you get on the petal shadows is pleasing too. Perfect positioning of the flower as well. Fantastico.
I'm getting so I like a flower as art more than a flower as a nature pic. I'll likely change come Spring, but for now, with ice determined to stay on the ground for the next week at least, I am into Art. Thanks, nice pic.
