I am probably afraid that some spectator will not understand my photography - therefore I proceed to make it really less understandable by writing defensibly about it.

Just the most perfect zinnia I have ever seen! The color is just gorgeous and the bloom is so wonderfully crisp and clear and shows off all the splendor of the little yellow parts around the center too. Well done, PJ!
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Very well done, Pj. I know how difficult it is to get a good focus on a flower of this colour but you have got it - and I am sure the queen will smile and ask : "who sent me this?"
Beautiful PJ, just Beautiful!!
The actual flower gives the impression it is forward of the frame, I hope thats understandable. Speaking of frames, this one suits the work perfectly.

My comments will be hit and miss for the next month or so. I'm preparing to return to the U.S. on 1 Aug and will be on vacation until 20 Aug or so...I will be checking though and I look forward to your great shots! L8R...G8R
Wow...love the colors and the framing really goes great with the center of the flower!! I love how the flower is offset to the right..really great composition. Another good one!!
I think what I love most of all in this photo is where the placement of the flower is compared to all the fantastic
leaves! They are just gorgeous!! That green and their shapes, wow, it makes the photo just come alive!!! You did a grand job on this one my friend!! Verena
I'm not a professional photographer but I enjoy sharing my work with everyone and viewing other peoples work.
please visit PARAMEDYC'S gallery Thank you, Terry
This is a wonderful looking flower and I lov eht eway you have captured it off centre. The colour of the flower really stands out against the backing. Excellent work

Fabulous shot PJ -I like the way you have repeated the centre of the flower in the border/frame.
It would stand alone without the frame equally well
Excellent work :)
