That is a really pretty image Tony, well worth savoring. Even if I don't always comment, be assured I enjoy all the flower images that you post.

The title/theme you selected made me see your image in a totally different way. Congratulations on a good capture but even more on a well-selected theme!

**Tonytee** · 06-28-2017, 08:44 AM

A warm thanks to you both. Your comments are always greatly appreciated.

I'll add my congratulations too, Tony - a lovely image, well-captured, and a clever title

Great photo, and a title to catch our attention!

Excellent Shot
BTW Referring to the June Taylor Dancers makes me and maybe a few others feel a little dated. I remember watching the June Taylor Dancers as a kid in the 60's being introduced by Jackie Gleason while he smoked a cigarette and sipped "Tea" from a cup and saucer on a B&W and later Color TV. I wonder if it was really "Tea" in that cup

"And Away We Go"

Great shot Tony! Nice to see you using your Pentax for great flower shots.

Great photo and caption featuring the June Taylor Dancers. I recall that group very well from '60's TV...the flowers do look remarkably like a dancing troupe. I wish I had taken that photo and used that line. Well done in both cases !

A very big thank you to all who left wonderful comments, thereby generating cherished memories. Here is the sad part, many remember The Honeymooners from the early 1960s, I remember them from the early 1950s. The Honeymooners, starring Jackie Gleason, Art Carney, Joyce Randolph and Audrey Meadows. Thanks again,

Tonytee.

I recall The Honeymooners TV sitcom show..from the 1950's, also. The June Taylor Dancers were on the The Jackie Gleason Show, Jackie's variety show. The man had a talent for entertaining people. He knew what was funny...even way into the 1980's with some of the Burt Reynolds' Bandit movies.

Great shot, Tony - I think pretty backgrounds are important for pretty subjects, like in your photo!

Well sir, I really appreciate your kind words. This was a fun shot, I only wished I had one more stop to open for better bokeh.

A great shot Tony. Beautiful colors and a nostalgic title. Very fun.

I've been without a computer for a week and this image was my first stop back on PF.
