My previous posted poinsettias were unusual varieties or colors - this one is just the classic red. But it was one of the most intense red poinsettias I've seen and caused me to make some camera adjustments I don't usually have to do indoors. It was from a display at the Chicago Botanic Garden. All comments and critiques appreciated.

You captured the red so very well, might be a little loss on detail, but the color is outstanding, and makes up for that. Beautiful Kathy. =^..^=Tigs

Red poinsettias always make a wonderful Christmas desktop. Beautifully captured Kathy. Saved.

An excellent capture Kathy. I like the softness of the blooms and the richness of the colours.

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.
