However, we have such an abundance right now that nothing would be missed. Ana Lúcia from Leiria, PortugalBeautiful roses! The green background was a great choice for this. 20 Jun 2009 1:32pm @Ana Lúcia: Thank you, Ana. Don from spokane, United StatesThe triad of roses makes a strong composition. Lovely color and detail. Your comment is very appropriate. I think it's critical that someone is looking at our work, but I agree it is very important to aim at developing a unique and personal style - which is very hard to do. 20 Jun 2009 1:34pm @Don: Thanks, Don. I'm not so concerned about being unique, but I do want to do work that reflects my inner vision. @khadi: Thank you. Betty from New Jersey, United StatesYou commentary on vision is spot on and I agree completely. Thank you for putting it into words. Your roses are beautiful, yellow one are my favorite. 20 Jun 2009 4:18pm @Betty: Thanks, Betty. B. Thomas from Arlington, Texas, United StatesReminds me of an old song - "The Yellow Rose of Texas".

However, up here our rose plants do not even have buds on them yet this year. I hope I get to see some blooms of my own.

I follow his blog on a daily basis. If I miss other blogs, I make sure I don't miss his. I know the book is going to be wonderful once I finally have the time to devote to it. 21 Jun 2009 10:36pm @Toni: You will love it. dj.tigersprout from New York City, United Statessplendid and lovely!! brilliant color!! 21 Jun 2009 11:28pm jamesy from christchurch, New Zealandwow what a beautiful rose. Hope I didn't offend you by saying that I prefer my flowers in colour. I didn't mean to I just love to see all the beautiful colours out there 22 Jun 2009 6:49am @jamesy: You absolutely did not offend me. The truth of the matter is that there are others who prefer everything in B&W. The point of my response was that I need to look inside of myself and ask what I prefer for a given image. Sometimes I post something in both color and B&W simply to see what others think and feel. What I know is that for myself, my emotional response to color is different than it is to B&W. For my better flower images, I generally want both color "and" B&W. Tammy-Cricket from United StatesSo true...a rose today is not the same tomorrow. This is great in a cluster! 22 Jun 2009 1:53pm Ajay from Pune, IndiaThey are so fragile indeed. But I think that is the problem with beauty. 22 Jun 2009 4:50pm Barbara from Florida, United StatesMy favorite color of yellow surrounded by lush deep green, something we are missing here from our drought. 22 Jun 2009 11:55pm |
