Flowers #2
Soft & Romantic
Textured &/or Manipulated
I stayed home today, and so this is from last Sunday’s trip to my local botanical garden. This opening cosmos bud caught my eye for the petal detail and the bright beauty of yellow blossoms in the background (I think they may have been coreopsis). (Olympus E-5 & 50mm macro, f/6.3, 1/100 sec., ISO 320, overcast, handheld) Textures courtesy of Kim Klassen Café.

Celeste, this is very beautiful . . . .the detail is superb and the overall balance quite lovely. I love your use of the texture, a beautiful piece of work.
Thanks very much, Teresa. I tried a lot of textures before settling on the three I ended up using – a little here, a little there. :)

That’s just so lovely, Celeste… that gorgeous pink color is just further enhanced by the petal detail and the glorious things to come as the petals of the bud slowly open….as you say, the yellow of the background plays off that pink so prettily also…. absolutely a stunning image, Celeste.. Hope you are on the mend.. it’s been a long road for you with your eyes… my fingers are all crossed for your continued full recovery.
Thanks very much, Katherine. I always enjoy your thoughtful comments. I’m definitely on the mend, and my vision is much improved with the cataract gone.

Love the softness of the focus on this one and the lovely cheerful colours and brightness. Hope you are better soon. :o)
Thank you, Maggie. When I saw yellow flowers near the cosmos patch, I immediately saw the photographic possibilities. I’m already better, a little more so each day.
