May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day,
May songbirds serenade you every step along the way,
May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that's always blue,
And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.


- Irish blessing -

Have a lovely Sunday dear friends.
Ioana



About the shot:
- made some months ago in May with my old camera but with the same feelings and thoughts when it comes for a flower's inside. The flower was a beautiful little pink-white tulip.
-PP work: crop, contrast and light adjustments, noise reduction and framed.

About the feelings:
- tell you the true, while processing this shot I was thinking about my little unborn baby girl and I really felt that this shot it's exactly in the same mood with what I feel... that I am blessed with the most beautiful gift...

Hi Ioana,
This is such a beautiful picture. I love the soft white and pastel colors of the flower pedals with the vivid yellow pollen. The detail in the pedals is nice. A great macro of the very pretty flower. Nice work.
Regards,
Kevin

Hi Ioana,
very attractive image - and the colours.
Despite the very gentle/subtle tones, depth comes out nicely.
Well done.
Best regards, Daniel

P.S: Congratulations in advance :-))

Hola Ioana.
Espero que todo vaya bien.
Delicados tonos y hermoso colorido.

Bonjour Ioana,
it seems to me looking at your picture of your presentation that you are a beautiful future mother, or browsing your gallery, I now know that a girl will make her entry for your greatest happiness.
Looking at your picture, I see a lot of delicacy, softness, the serenity of a mother who expects her baby, the colors of this flower, white rose, are in perfect harmony with your thoughts, I'm sure.
Simple beauty and a perfect as your future daughter.
All my wishes for her arrival in your family.
Very best regards
Corinne

Très bonne journée mon amie

Hello Ioana,
This is pure poetry.
The white is so well captured with a soft pink, and frames so well the soft yellow, that I would say that the photo was taken in the gardens of the angels. Very beautiful.
