Beautiful still life of these flowers, David. Vibrant colors and the detail sharp enough to see the water droplets clinging to the petals. A fine birthday card for your friends and a well captured, lovely image.

Hello David,

This really is a beautiful flower. Great pp work - it nearly pops out of the frame!
Excellent sharp details which show the petal arrangements and the colours perfectly.
A very good, 0ff-centre composition.

I'm sure no-one will be offended by your revelations of age _ they will be thrilled by the dedication.
Anyway, just to prove that I have been reading my emails, here is an appropriate quote:

Have a good week, my friend,
Bev :-)
Many thanks for your warm comments on 'Time for a new home ..'

Oh wow! It was worth becomming an "Old ****" as my darling kids put it just to receive such a beautiful present and only too happy to share. I also can now claim to be the oldest at work, hey if I can do something then no excuses for anyone else not to. I HOPE I will have my computer back by next week, been gone 3 weeks and I am usually almost asleep before Carl gets off his long enough for me to 'borrow' it even long enough to check mail and take a quick peek in here, tonight is birthday treat I think. Fran, 60 isnt so bad after all, actually dont feel a day over 70. Thank you all for the best wishes and especially our card wizz

Another sweet and beautiful tribute, my friend of many faces. Your framing is beautiful and perfect. The flowers stunning and the colours are so wonderful. I love the little drops of moisture. You will soon have a reputation for flowers as much as mist. Excellent work.
Warm Regards

Hello David
I promise I'll work hard on framings to make some of my subjects blow the sceen!!
The impression of freshness is provided by diffused light and the exposure for highlights.
Quite an artful tableau!
Cheers.
