Aloha Fax,

Mahalo nui loa for stopping by and leaving a comment. Yes, I did see your photo of the same flower. By the way I love all your gallery photos! #1501460

Laura Clay-Ballard June 22, 2005

love these colors. They remind me of coleous. incredible sharpness and dof is superb. I'm envious that you can get in super duper close .. I can't! :>( #1508192

Lani T. Broadbent level-classic June 22, 2005

Laura,

Thank you for your lovely comments. Your comments continue to inspire me. Again, Thanks! #1508238

Mary N C. Taitt June 23, 2005

I love this, it is sturdy, yet delicate. Nice colors and composition. Mary #1511322

Mary K. Robison June 23, 2005

Obviously the artist in you knows all about composition, Lani. This full-frame macro shows us those lovely colors and details perfectly.
Once you get familiar with the clone tool in Photoshop, you'll be able to "retouch" the flaws in the edges ~ that's the ONLY advice I'm semi-suggesting! Beautiful photo! #1513377

Lani T. Broadbent level-classic June 24, 2005

Mary S. ~ Thank you for stopping by and leaving a wonderful comment.

Mary R. ~ Thank you for my first "semi-suggestion". I'm honestly looking for more comments like yours since I learn from them. In addition, thank you for your kind words of encouragement. #1514465
