For me, the vast marvel is to be alive. For man, or for flowers or beast or bird, the supreme triumph is to be most vividly and perfectly alive.

Hope you like, and i appreciate any comments. Dwight.
This is gorgeous, Dwight! And a perfectly timed shot as well! The background is just blurry enough to keep your focus on the flowers, which have excellent clarity and detail. And I'm amazed that you were able to catch that little bug flying in without it being a blur! Top marks from me and in my favorites!
Thanks B.J, Joost, Jacqueline, Rebecca, and June so much for your wonderfull comments, that makes me want to keep on clicking. Glad you all found it to your liking. Dwight.
