As the days go by, we can see how the life goes with them....
Without desaturation fx as it may look, this flowers were placed by the feets of a stone angel at the recoleta cemetary. In a place full of " grey" (thousands of angels, statues,) see this two "dying" flowers is a pretty strong emotion.

great photo and title. congratulations.

Great photo and very powerful.

Superbe le mélange de ces fleurs colorés sur ce fond gris.
La composition est très bonne.
Le sujet est très fort, ces fleurs au pied de la statue.
The DOF is excellent.

This is beautiful!The composition is great.I love the contrast between the grey and the orange.Also like the way the flower is not totally focused.With your note or without it, this is very poetic,philosophic!

Very interesting picture, congratulations! Great Depth of Field. The constrast between the flowers and feet has an amazing effect! Well done....

A very creative and lovely shot. Great use of DOF and very strong impact from your note!

Very nice Fernando, the F-717 sure does take a clear and sharp picture great color as well.

The combination of nature in colour and the grey stone is very nice. The DOF is great, nice still-life-shot, Fernando !

Hola Fernando,
fantástica y muy emotiva fotografia!!
Un lugar increíble la Recoleta para este tipo de composiciones.
El contraste entre colores, luces y sombras, la dureza de la piedra y la fragilidad de las margaritas crean una atmósfera de gran sensibilidad.
Felicitaciones!!
Marisa

pts mañana

Amazing Picture! I think it's really touching!
Charlotte

hermosa foto, buen cutout... no me deja darte puntos, no sé la razón... ojalá sea una falla temporal

ahora dejo los ptos. que no pude ayer...

tremenda definición que tiene esta foto! me gustó mucho... disculpa ¿es un cut out?.... todo dice parecer que si, pero tengo mis dudas... porque el pie pareciera que es de una escultura...

buen trabajo, te felicito

Very good POV and DOF. Good PP work. Brings out all the emotions of the place. The color full flower is also dying soon, will also be grey soon. I love the B&W work you do, really inspiring. TFS.

Excellent use of color and DOF, but it works all because of a fantastic composition with a powerful foreground and dramatic backdrop.

Good choice and great commentary to go with it as always. I like the grain texture and the actual flower simply works with this image. Had it been another flower it would have been completely different. GREAT job!

Fernando
Te felicito por la composición, La Recoleta es inagotable para estas fotos, yo estuve 2 dias tirando fotos y admirando las esculturas.
Saludos, Rafael

Excellent shot, Fernando, with a real emotional impact and a good POV. Combination of colourful flowers and grey stone is an excellent idea.
Compliments,
Martine

I just love this shot, love the colors

Hello. Fenomenal shot. Good composition. Beautiful contrast of colours. Great work. Well done.

Hello,
Very strong photograph. Love the contrat between the color and the B&W. Greate job.

Regards,
Idálio

Beautifully composed image.
I love the tones and misty background.
Excellent work.

Sometimes we even don't feel how time goes by. And we realize that it's gone, only when it's too late.
Another strong image, Fernando, I have nothing to say.
Thanks for sharing!
Regards, Evgenia

Excelente connotación la que has logrado, dandole importancia al elemento mas colorido, y dejando el resto en matices de b/n. Quizas falta un poquito de nitidez, pero por ello no deja de ser un buen y bonito trabajo.

Hi Fer

Linda composición felicidades

Nat

Cemetery please me to walk and do photos like that me too... those colors please me. I have the feeling it's the last day they were vivid... After... Fading... day after day...
Excellent mood!

Creative in this color selection. Masterfully done. I'd like to learn how this is done, too.

Jeruel
