This one was also in the "save for later" bin that I was going through and I put it up on my desktop and really enjoyed it as yet another storm raged outside today. It was refreshing for me and I hope you like it too! :)PJ

I like the over the border look to this great sunflower picture. The detail is again excellent. This will brighten up the desktop for sure. Nice, PJ.

A thing becomes beautiful from the thought of its absence.
The last time I got this close to a flower, a bee stung me on the nose. Of course I have a big nose but still. Wowzer PJ. This is so clear it makes my eyes quiver. Everyone else has given you all the supearlatives, supertives, suppierlitives, superlatives, oh forget it. Everyone else has said how good this is and I agree. I'm curious how you got it outside the frame but I probably wouldn't understand.

Fantastically vibrant and bright. It's snowing here this morning - and we have snow on the ground in London for the first time in as long as I can remember. So this beauty is very welcome indeed!

OH! Reminds me of summer, as it just snowed all day long up here yesterday. So everything is white. Had to put this on my desktop to remind me it will eventually arrive. This is a fantastic shot. Love how you captured the detail on the seeds. Nice post.

Gads PJ - this sunny bloom just jumps off the page! I love the way she's coming out of the frame. The details are magnificent - blooming petals and bursting seeds. A superduper wallpaper. One of your best! Oh, can't forget the vibrant colors and stellar frame :^)

Well, looks like everyone on Caedes stopped in to tell you what a beauty of a shot this is. And it is a really fine one. There's a dimensionality to it that has it popping off the monitor. Well done, PJ!
