Photography->Flowers
It's been so dreary and depressing, rainy and cold the last couple of days, so I decided to dip back into the bin of colorful spring flowers I found down south on Mother's Day. I won't do my usual lament about posting what everyone else is, cause they're flowers, and they're all special, aren't they? As different as the patterns of snowflakes...as different as we all are, yet the same. I hope you enjoy this one and revel in the boldness of the splash of spring! :)PJ

Nice work PJ. The flowers look great and I really like the photo looking frame with the lifted edges and shadows.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life.
I may be feeling a little Spacey tonight and I know I am no Keyser Söze; but I really like this flower.
I think your flower is blushing from all the attention she is receiving.
Good post PJ and be careful at the pier. That was pretty limp I know. Have a good evening.

Lovely flowers to bring you a bit of Joy in such dreary weather. I think you should send in a written complaint to the National Weather Service. It is not fair, you have a right to a bit of sunshine in May.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Nice contrast with that bright bunch in the middle foreground and the rest in the backround. Framed very nicely also.

Looks like a crabapple tree blossom. Beautiful color and clarity, PJ. And, I especially like the way you framed this shot. It adds a nice dimensionality to my monitor.

My monitor must be over heating. It's making the edges of your picture curl. LOL. Well, PJ, This is a very nice foofy picture. Even though I must admit that pink is not really my favorite color, I know that to others it probably is. But be that as it may, my color preference takes nothing away from the beauty of your shot....AND...since green IS my favorite color, and there are some green leaves in there too, then I applaud your work. My compliments to the photographer....YOU.

I have no qualms about 'another' flower shot. As you said, they are all so very different in the same way landscapes are different or birds are different. Beautiful profusion of pink blooms and delightful framing on this one, PJ!

I understand very well that you are a bit depressed by
this kind of weather, PJ!
I've looked in your gallery, and special at the same time
last year!. You were very happy those days!
This is a great spring image, and you know, after rain
comes sunshine!!!
Cheer up!

Great job. I never thought about flowers' similarity to snowflakes. Nice observation. Just glad flowers are more fun to look at.

I was sad because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet... so I says to him, "Hey brother, ya wanna sell those shoes?"
Here it is also cold and rainy, so this beautiful image helps. Thanks.

That's beautiful, pretty and delicate. You're right it's a bit like snow fractals, I never thought about that with flowers before. Great colour too. Sorry to hear it's been dull where you are - I hope it brightens up for you soon!

Pink clouds seem to be everywhere.... This is scrumptious! And I like the 'photo' frame treatment you gave it, makes it special.
