A picture is worth a thousand words--that DOES NOT mean I will comment a thousand...It will be a Yay or Nay.

The positioning on this pic is very delicate...just off to the side the slightest degree, which only adds to the simple appeal. The color is beautiful and the background is a dreamy contrast to the vivid red. I like the petals and the way they are almost carelessly positioned in the flower themselves. It creates nice shadow effects for the viewer. If I have anything to say at all as a criticism it's that the very heart of the flower, the yellow, seems to be a bit blurred, but it could be because I'm on a different monitor than my own, and the colors on this one are darker than what I'm used to. This will make an effective desktop :)PJ

Frank, this is simple and very nice. I like the uneven look in the petals also - adds charm to it! I also enjoyed your other post, the bouquet of flowers for your lucky wife. Very nice! Well done! - Patty

It's all about perspective and perception.

Nicely done Frank. The bright rich color of the zinnia against the light blurred background is really effective. I also like the angle of the flower. anne :-)

Don't tell me it's good, tell me what is good about it. Don't tell me it stinks, tell me what I can do do improve it. Thank you for taking the time to tell me anything at all. Be blessed. anne :-)

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel. -Josemaria Escriva
