Pansies are rather simple flowers by nature's standard - just 4 petals. Most times they are composed of 2 or 3 colors. This one was just simply orange of various shades. My entry for the contest. All comments and critiques appreciated.

Hi, Kathy....

Here we have a perfect example of why I will not post flower photos ever again. The detail is exquisite by showing the tiny folds as well as the circulatory system just beneath the surface. The color is gorgeous. The background is extraordinary. I certainly would like to know why you cropped this so tight. There must have been some nasty ugly right outside the shot.

P.S. And good luck in the contest.

If that were a clover, we would be in luck. LOL. Gorgeous shot, Kathy. Excellent all the way around.

A lovely capture of this beautiful pansy. Love the colour and the matching frame work. Nice clarity and details in your photo. Best of luck in the contest.

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. Henri Cartier-Bresson
