Imperfect but Still Beautiful

Imperfect but Still Beautiful

Uploaded: March 30, 2006

Description

These pink azeleas in my yard were drooping a bit. You can see the "worn" places on their leaves at high magnification. So in this shot, I added a slight filter and cropped it way down.

This is an interesting shot - the one thing that limits it is that it would be better if the top border were just a touch higher, leaving a bit of the background around the flower. And wilted or not, the flowers look beautiful. #424650

Thanks, Susan. I will go back to the original and see what I could do re: the crop. I think you are right -- a little more at the top would be good. #2631728
