very beautiful! #896401Genevieve Powell April 08, 2008
I'm glad you saved it, you've obviously done a great job bringing it's liveliness back. I love the composition, delicate lighting and softness of this photograph. How did you get such a soft look? #5762327Bob M. Fortier April 08, 2008
Thank you for your comments Tiia and Genevieve. Softness came in the way of the evening setting sun. Other than the morning these are the only two time I like to shoot flowers. #5762361Stephanie Frey April 14, 2008
