I have been wondering what to put onto TL from the last month and after listening to AC/DC and Audioslave I thought that I would put this shot of a wild flower to match the music. It was taken when out for a walk round the briglands and had just turned of to go to the waterside and saw this lovely flowering plant, nettle I think. I hope that you like it to.

shot in raw
re-sized
played with the mid tones and shadows
sharpened
uploaded to tl from pspx1

All c and c's welcome.

blue flower in dull green wow so amazing,so powerful so stunning.I love it simply.TFS

its ok bud ill cheer you upat the weekend lol seriosley i like this one grt dof and the dull green realy makes a good shot tfs

Nice Jonny! Perfect pretty flower to match with the music of AC/DC !!!!!
Nice use of shallow DOF to isolate those three flowers ... the blurred background and color are great. However I think I might have tried a different crop .. in my very humble opinion it seems as though there is maybe just a tad too much background here.
Great job. Trudy

(I've tried a workshop .. hope you don't mind:)

Hi Jon,
Sorry but when I hear AC/DC I think o' Black leather and beer stained denim....Great shot of this pretty blue flower, nice detail and great bluring of the dull background. TFS

Hello Jon,
Beautiful flowers nicely composed with great colours and sharpness, Excellent POV. great details and they are so beautiful lovely flowers.Best regards Siegfried

If they are nettles then I would think of "Sting" instead of ACDC Nice presentation with lovely blue against the green. TFS
