Good Morning Everyone,

This mornng, one of my favourite flowers, a fuschia.

This lovely flower has a story.
I must have saved it from the previous year and popped it in the greenhouse to overwinter. As often happens in my unmethodical world, it got covered and forgotten.

Earlier this year, I was tidying up and rediscovered it struggling, to send up new shoots. Full of guilt, I repotted it and moved it into the conservatory where it has grown and flourished, providing the most colourful blossoms for most of the year.

I will be more sensitive and caring with this delightful plant, this winter. It deserves it!

I know it is quite centrally placed put it looks best in that situation. Sidelining just did not seem to work!

Many thanks for stopping by.
Please feel free to feedback on any aspect of the photograph. Bev :-)

Hi Bev :)

I must say the centrally placed Fuschia flower, works very well here. Your decision was great! The colors are perfect and the sharpness is great. The POV and DOF is very well managed. The elegant framing works very well here too.

Great work, my friend.

best regards,
Paras

hi beverley
great macro shot of this fuschia,beautiful colours and great detail,I think your plant is a cultured one more pink than deep red.Im not a flower person but Im very fond of fuschia,grows rampant in the autumn in Kerry adds beautiful colour to the countyside,the local people call it the deori dei(tears of god).less of the trivia.
regards

Hi Bev,
A very sharp macro shot of this Fuschia flower.
Nicely hanging adorned with subtle lighting and backed by an adequate blurred BG!
Fabulous PP work, especially in the frame work!
That little 'bit' off-frame is creating a great impact to the whole neat presentation.
Well done,
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Hi Bev

A superb floral macro. There are some double lines at the top of the flower. Probably from pp work? Good colour, contrast & saturation. The stamen extending beyond the frame is great. Tfs!

Nice work on this Bev! Excellent sharpness! Sorry I haven't been around in a while, been on the road! The last two months I've gotten to meet 5 TL members, some for the first time, some not! The quality here is superb!

Hello,
you have the same idea to show the fuchsia in the frame, can it be a telepathy?
best regards

A lovely sharp macro Beverley.
A good composition with one of the stamen just coming out of the frame.We can even see some tiny spots of pollen moving as you shot the picture.
Fuschias seem quite hardy; they grow in the hedgerows where we live, flowering for a greater part of the year.
Tfs, regards Jean.
