Hi TL Friends,

Sorry for the delay in posting a photo but I just finished a MAJOR upgrade on my PC! A combination of hardware and taking the plunge in upgrading to the new operating system…VISTA! Trying to cope from XP to VISTA has been frustrating at times! (^_^)

Anyway, I hope all is well with everyone and that you have a great week!

Enjoy!
Constantinos

Great title. The pansies seem to lead into almost a yellow carpet as the eye wanders down the path. Nice job.

Hi Constantinos,
These Pansy's look so bright and cheerful. I like the way you have cropped the image. So pretty.
Cheers,
Debbie

Hi Constantinos,
This is a lovely very spring like and colorful photo. The flowers are so warm and colorful they draw your eyes down the pansy road. Thanks for sharing,
Fran

Hello Constantine,

First of all Happy name day to both of you!!
Great shot, the DOF is perfect and the low level composition and excellent perspective, give your photo a great visual impact.

Vista, LOL. What software works no longer, Κώστα? Bert's PC has been upgraded and I have a perfect running vm loaded with Vista, but my desktop will remain XP for quite some time ;o)). First see if everything will get drivers and new software.

Anyway, I like this version of the famous Yellow Brick Road. Excellent compo.

Hi Constantinos, lovely photo of the pansies. I decided a while back that taking an extended shot of a bed of them is not an easy task. Good colour, detail and focus. TFS,
Dave

Our techie has Vista, when he upgraded he had many problems.

Hi Constantinos!Veri interesting photo and idea!Well done.

Hi Constantinos-
I too have had a delay here, mine has been work related but also have Vista at work UGHH- Your photos are great, love the POV on these pansies- great colors and very appealing. TFS Julie

Hi Cons, haha! Yellow brick road! It is so nice, and lovely shallow dof. Well done!

I have Windows Vista Ultimate with Aero Glass and it is incridible to see the beauty of the photos. This is why I bought this computer, for working on photos. Plus I bought a digital screen! So much better! I really enjoy it. But it is really something to get use to the new architecture of Windows Vista. We don't find the same thing at the same place and it is frustrating some times.

Take care, Yan :)

Hello Constantinos!

I have not heard so many positie comments on VISTA...... Glad to see you back on line. Austrian Spring colors. We are just starting here two months later to have flowers (^_^).

Great DOF , giving more punch to your composition.
Bravo!
Robert

I was told by local pc shop Vista still has a few niggles and not to be in too much of a hurry to install it but sounds like they are out of date which is good. Wasnt going to redo the laptop but I have an old desktop that needs reformatting and I may as well put vista into it.
I love the pansies,
Diane

An array of yellow pensy is looking fantastic in this beautiful take. Nice point of view and smart composition. Longitudinal shooting has added a sense of depth. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this image.

Hello Constantinos,
Interesting point of view gives an attractive perspective!
Fresh yellow is an attractive coolour that works well with the green...

Γειά σου Κώστα,

Όμορφη η φωτογραφία σου παρά το "ρηχό" βάθος πεδίου. Εξαιρετικά τα χρώματα και οι γραμμές που μας πάνε στο βάθος.

Very nice composition. One of my favorite flowers. Well presented with great colors.
