[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Tibouchina trees are also blooming everywhere near where we live now. I was composing an image for a flowering trees group that I belong to when I noticed the mirror-like appearance of this image. It is actually two flowers on the same stem that almost looks as if they were mirrored in PP. Hope you also like it!

The photo of the bloom is just extracted from the background. Background blurred and frame added, signature added and resized for upload.

wow i like this, soft and warm colors, and youre framing...beautifull! kind regards Joke

Bonjour Wia,
Jolie composition,
J'ai eu une plante en pot : c'était un tibouchina, mais ŕ fleur bleue, il me semble. Est ce vraiment un arbre chez vous ?
Merci du partage.

Hi Wia:
Well seen & captured...
OUTSTANDING post with excellent dof, sharpness & color saturation!!!

Hi dear friend,
beautiful PP work to present us this wonderful flower.
I like the framing style. Maybe the stem is ending a little too sudden.
Otherwise congrats for a fine shot.
Best wishes,
Ioana
:) soon

Howzit Wia.
Baie dankie vir al die prettige comments.
Dit is weer een baie mooi blommetjies foto.
Sulk een mooi randie daarom heen. Klasse werk, Wia.
Groeten van Jan

Very beautiful! A pretty pretty flower and yes I see what you mean. I love the color and the details. TFS

Hello Wia,

You have captured this with very sharp exposure and lovely details of colour and texture.

I like how the light is catching the r/h leaf.
Your framing co-ordinates the colours nicely!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
