Very nice detail, color and lighting here, Mitch. My captures of this type of flower always look like blobs and never show off the delicate individual flowers like yours does. #6072315

Hi, Shelly, Jeana, Tammy, Jo Ann, Phil, Pat, and Nikki. There really are so many types of these, and I'm not kidding about their anti-deer properties being a real plus for me. The light was late in the day, oh, maybe 5:30 or 6:00 I guess. I fooled with the background. It wasn't as clean as this by a long shot to start with. Nikki, this was a really big type of allium bloom, so that helped with the definition of individual petals. #6074886

Hi, Dianna, and thanks. Well, it missed getting an EP this time, but I think it will go back in the mix one of these days perhaps. #6154658
