The redwood forests emphasize the "big" - but there were many beautiful wildflowers growing amongst these giants. Photo I took on August 14, 2011.

They may be small but the quality of this image is top of the scale Nathan.
Beautiful, and a polished elegance to the image

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. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Beautiful flowers & I like the simplicity of this image. Very well done, Nathan.

When taking the time to see things around you, you can find beauty you never even knew was there. This is a beautiful flower and wonderfully captured by you.

I love the softness of this shot. It makes the blooms bloom. To be honest, the shadow on the lowest bloom bothered me at first. I think because of the background being so dark, one wouldn't expect the sun to be out - and it still kind of throws me. But after viewing it large and small several times, I think it works.

I thought I had all the answers, but it turns out I don't even know the questions. -Stephen Prothero (paraphrased)
Thanks. The dark background is due to the exposure setting I chose. If you pull the picture into Photoshop, and do a levels command, and bring up the midtones, you'll see all the background leaves. The flower was sitting in the sun against a shadowed background, and I had to take several exposures before I got one that didn't blow out the flowers. Wish I could say I planned it that way - but I just got lucky. The other 20 shots I took didn't turn out so well.
I love digital photography. I can try a setting and see the result immediately on the LCD display. If it didn't work, I can trash the photo and try again. I think I'd be in the poorhouse if we were still using film based photography.
