Very nice composition; excellent details.
Helene Kippert
Gorgeous colours!
Marion Cullen
Thanks Dan & Helene, the colours are surely what attracted me in the first instance. One detail I’d hoped to capture, with the DOF bleeding away at the edges, was some suggested movement, as of a pinwheel spinning.
