For the past couple of weeks have been taking pictures of the wildflowers that are blooming in Nature Preserve...and might add while I am down near the soil taking pictures of insects also...all macro shots. This is a picture of a dainty little flower called Deptford Pink. Very small bloom but the pink color stands out in green foliage around it.

Nice work on this. Like the dof, and you are right, the colours pops against the b/g.

Seems that everything you turn your eye and hand to magically transforms.

I really appreciate your uploads.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

That pink really sings against the green. Great composition, too.

You did a great job with this macro shot. I love the pink color in the background of green. I hope to see more of the insect photos in the future. Beautiful work.
