Nice series Rosemary. I like the Rose the best with the isolated background and well captured whites.

Damn Brit · 07-25-2008, 08:44 PM

I love the second shot Rosemary, it's quite abstract for you, I like this side of you........... MORE, MORE, MORE...................

I shoot those first flowers in my yard all the time and I am here to tell ya, it is tough to get the reds right on those babies... Too much/Too little. Too pink, you know what I am talking about.

And the detail on the white rose is really good. Another tough exposure to get right and you nailed it... Love it

Yes they are hard to get the color right and the lighting right. I have some with the more purple color that I will be getting to.
I really am pleased with the white rose, surprised even myself, lol! the red plant has beautiful sunlight shinning through it.

Gary.. calm down.. Rosemary will keep your fix in place! Nice shoots and agree with Gary on the second one.. Its you! Cheers JIMBO

Very nice. The second one in the first batch, is that shot through something or is a reflection off something. The edges of the colored part of the image look curved like it's reflecting off something round but it seems too sharp for that. Also, the left edge through that off. How did you shoot that one?

daacon · 07-26-2008, 05:35 AM

Well done Rosemary - love the framing on #2 and the simple background on #3 glad you remembered.

roentarre · 07-26-2008, 06:24 AM

The 2nd shot is my favorite. Really standing out. Good framing with interesting light

cupic · 07-26-2008, 06:28 AM

Yes yes the rose is so delicate yet it has a special meaning

cheers

JMR · 07-26-2008, 06:56 AM

Love that second shot. Like looking through beads of water on glass. Most pleasing!

I really like the first picture for its mood! Like you have found a hidden treasure, not seen by too many...

Bramela · 07-26-2008, 01:45 PM

Nice shots Rosemary. Love the shot of the Fuschia (#1) and the Rose is a very well taken shot as well. Really enjoy good flower shots, as that is my main interest

Well done!

You know how sometimes you are walking along and something just jumps right out at you as a good shot. well, that did not happen here, lol he he he It was an experiment that turned out well.

I do like how you can see the texture of the rose petals. It is really nice in a larger size.
