My Friday foofy is of this Oriental Poppy which I found in my parents garden. I wish these flowered longer than what they do, as they are real garden stunners. Thank you in advance of any comments.

The details, colors, and bokeh are all very good. One has to remind as well that it's pretty hard to capture intense red colors in a good way, but I see no flaws at all, so you've provided us with a beautiful F² close-up, Ann. Very well done!

Regards, Cornelius.

That center is shaaarp! Beautiful red poppy. I think these spread all across Europe a long time ago from the far east.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
