[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The meadow and the mountain with desire
...Gazed on each other, till a fierce unrest
...Surged 'neath the meadow's seemingly calm breast,
And all the mountain's fissures ran with fire.

A mighty river rolled between them there.
...What could the mountain do but gaze and burn?
...What could the meadow do but look and yearn,
And gem its bosom to conceal despair?

Their seething passion agitated space,
...Till lo! the lands a sudden earthquake shook,
...The river fled: the meadow leaped, and took
The leaning mountain in a close embrace.

.....Attraction by Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919)

Hello Jack

Superb use of a shallow dof. I like the repetition, of the yellow foreground flowers. Good colour, lighting & sharpness. Well done!

Great shot. The DOF is just wonderful. Well done.

That short DOF is just wonderful! Great picture, I can almost smell the flowers! TFS!

Good work on the very shallow DOF here Jack, great colors and compo ..good job !!

Lovely shot, Jack - I wouldn't mind seeing this with a bit more DOF as well.

Beautiful photo! I like the colors, the POV and the sharpness. The colorful composition is natural and beautiful, I love the flowers and all the landscape looks so peaceful, veru different from what I am used to see here in my country. Good work!

Very good photo Jack :-))
Nice POV.
