What a beautiful background. I love the detail in the dried flower, and then that soft colorful background. Very pretty. #1503524

Thank you Pat! I'm glad to get your feedback because I hated every shot of this until I got that green background in! Bingo! Now that the flowers are gone, I've challenged myself to find the beauty in things I don't normally notice (or that I usually think are unsightly! lol) #10464558
