I took this shot a few weeks ago, before the freesia fully opened. I liked the lighting and composition of this one. The morning dew on the petals helps, too. Thanks to all who view and comment.

Oh yes you are totaly spot on with your text, and i do love the composition as well.
The front flower in white, and after that the others disapear in softfocus, still green.
Wonderfull shot. Before last week, i liked the flowers postings here at caedes, but since i am shooting them myself for about a week now, i do see the difficulties, and makes me apriciate other work even more, like this one.

Well, Mr. Postings stole my thoughts and put them in a comment before I ever got here, so I'll stand on his comment, because I too love the interesting and unique perspective angle of this beauty.
