65 Dec 25 Comment Nice composition and like the location of the yellow stamens in the image. Like the detail in the stamens. The image is sharp where it needs to be sharp with a shallow DOF. The ghost image of a stem on the right side is a slight distraction to my eye. I also would darken the light bokeh circular area in the upper left corner and also clone out the bluish areas on the left side and lower corner. I do like the background. A great image. Happy New Year. Dec 26th
65 Dec 25 Comment Another great image. Great detail in the flowers and nice composition. I like Mark's suggestion about the lighting. I feel the background is a bit too bright. The flowers have a beautiful blue color. Merry Christmas to you and Happy New Year. Dec 24th
65 Dec 25 Comment David, you have such a great eye for detail and to be able to see the image in your mind's eye before you even capture the image. Such a great image. This to my eye is art. Great composition and lighting. Like the subdued reflection. Like the background. Beautiful!! Dec 9th
65 Dec 25 Comment You captured great detail in the anthers and detail in the texture of the flower petals with your stack. I agree with the edits that David made to this image. His edit, to my eye, improves the composition. Dec 9th
65 Dec 25 Comment Beautiful shot of this plant. Nice composition and great light with the overcast sky. Butterflies and bees love these plants. Nice detail. The white background makes the image pop.
Everyone calls this plant thistle, but they are not thistles. This is a teasel. Teasels were brought into the US from Europe. Teasels played a vital role in the woolen cloth manufacturing process many years ago. They were used to card wool.
Anyway, this is a beautiful image.

65 Dec 25 Reply Yes, we do get frost in October, this is important to bring on good fall color in our trees. Also, some of the best roses are the ones that bloom late into the fall. No Japanese beetles or other insects to destroy the flowers. This frost does not happen often. You have to have moist air with a fast-dropping temperature with a clear night to form the frost on plants. As soon as the sun rises and shines on the rose the frost is gone. You have to be there and work fast. Dec 2nd
