You got this one in just on time with only a couple of minutes to spare. It's funny....you are loading your Thursday image and in a few minutes I'll loading my Friday image.
This is a really nice flower photo. I like the colors and the long stem. I never really know how much stem to include. You "picked" the right amount of stem to include and made this a great vertical shot.
