I love the diagonal "motion" or how you put it, in the composition and the colors are really lush and rich. :)

Love this composition, Don, and the colors are so summer. Right to my hard drive to pull out on a rainy day, thanks!

nice open composition on this one, these beauties look like they're eager to run away from the picture and fly away joining the sun.. these flowers do look like little sunflowers, heh :) i love the way their little heads are facing the skies, they look absolutely wonderful!

into my favourites with this one! it makes an excellent bright desktop that cheers me up :) nice focusing!

thank you for sharing it with us! enjoy your day :)

Another perfect 10. I like the composition and especially the selective depth of field. Here it is used as it was meant to be used. One doesn't need to have all of the elements in an image in focus. Especially if they are repetitive.

The aim of every artist is to arrest motion, which is life, by artificial means and hold it fixed so that a hundred years later, when a stranger looks at it, it moves again since it is life. Since man is mortal, the only immortality possible for him is to leave something behind him that is immortal since it will always move. This is the artist’s way of scribbling; “Kilroy was here” on the wall of the final and irrevocable oblivion through which he must someday pass.

Agree with Michael the DOF and composition are excellent with plenty for the eye to explore left within sight.
