Add your note here.

powerful colors.

Uh, this is orchid ... classic

i like it

Heart spot!

From our visit at my mom's on Saturday. These are on her dining room table and are from one of her plants outside. Can someone tell me what they are. I know they are a common flower but, i'm just not a flower kinda girl.

Was playing with curves, levels, and exposure. At frist I was going to post this more "real" to what it looked like, exposure and color wise but ended up with this and liked it.

~Cherron~ says:

I like it when people are able to step out of their realm of normal. I made myself go out today and just shoot whatever caught my eye because I don't normally do it. Good practice.

This turned out lovely, and I love the coloring.

Yes, these flowers are common, but they are quite nice. The dots on them are an intriguing contrast to the whiteness (or off-whiteness) of the flowers. I came across a very beautiful array of them at this Richmond florist
