 Sorry folks, but it just happens to be one of my favorite shots of the month - ENJOY IT! (THis is some type of daisy variant - but Karen doesn't know what it is! We'll be busy googling to find out.)

I like it for the composition, DOF and soft colors.

Minor colors and sat adjust, cropped, sharpened, resized, resharpened and some noise reduction, plus simple border.
I was hoping for a 5.7 or so, but this shot TANKED! Certainly, my title didn't help.
Regardless - I'm still happy with the shot!

The in focus flow half in the frame lost me on this one. maybe changing your angle, or pulling the other bloom out of the fram would have helped.

Yep, but it's a well done cliche.

Nice bright colors for an overcast day...flat light helps. Nicely done.
