I'm posting this gardenia I shot in April for Mother's Day (US) tomorrow. My mom loves gardenia and especially the fragrance. This was shot in a greenhouse with morning light dappling the petals. I tried to capture the wonderful velvety texture of those petals. All comments and critiques appreciated. (Canon G12,1/25 sec, F/4.0, 8MM focal, ISO 100)

I would travel only by horse, if I had the choice. ~ Linda McCartney ~
Kathy, I, too, love Gardenia's. Their fragrance is so awesome.
Good capture of a white flower. It is easy to get the white balance off but you did a fine job maintaining it.
Thank you for sharing this with me.
p.s. I can almost smell that flower now :)

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
Kathy - A beautiful capture. Were my mother-in-law still with us, she'd enjoy this very much add it was one of her favorites. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
A lovely closeup, Kathy. A wonderful image for your mother. Good clarity and details in the flower.
