Gorgeous lighting and colour, Nicole! I like the way you framed this as well! I would try this again and see if you can get the pistils (I think that's what those long thingies are :) ) in sharp, sharp focus. #270475

thank you Amanda! I will take your advice...i took this in the morning (i hope I can remember the time) I was quite surprised with how well the lighting was :) I can't take credit, it was nature's light! thank you again for your kind words and advice! :) #1533427

Very pretty. Have you tried a yellow
background? #1850191

Nicole E. Rappaport September 19, 2005

thanks Mary! no, I haven't figured out how to change backgrounds either! :) most of my photos come straight from camera to here (resized, sometimes cropped or converted to b&w). I still have ALOT of learning to do on the editing and enhancing side of things! I am a total newbie when it comes to that! :) I am willing to learn though and appreciate any suggestions! :) #1855648
