    G’day Sharon, I have not put them up as they were done for someone, however I asked if I could put this up so I could enter the fashionphotocomp, it was a tough choice beteen this one and the petal one. Which one do you like best.

    They are just so different…this one’s relaxed & the shows joy (IMO). I reckon the other is more impactful but why don’t we see what the girls think..Toni, Lee, marianne, Kathy…..where are you?

    David …. this is near perfection mate!! WOW!! So much all at once my senses seem overloaded. No wonder we can’t stop exploring this!!! The DOF is amazing and adds so much Depth!! The focus on the other hand is so opposed and yet so spot on, the tones so well balanced!! It’s brilliant!!

    Well that’s a hard question to answer Dave (and Sharon) but my vote would be for this one. It’s got such a warmth about it and a sense of blissful dreaming. All the best for the comp Dave :o)
