Another shot from the new camera - it was a very blue hydrangea and I wanted to accent the intense color without sacrificing the detail on the petals. I used a touch of Orton to do that among other things. All comments and critiques appreciated.

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. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
