Even in your own front yard you can find beauty.

Happy New Year

 

Your comments are appreciated.

I like the way you portrayed those two flowers and your use of DOF, but to me the flowers are a bit too centered in the photo with also the pink flower bud at the bottom left a bit distracting. Maybe you could consider a little tighter crop at the left and the bottom ?

OK here's my tighter crop, is this more to your liking? I must say the feedback I've been getting here has been very helpful.

Randy, I like the tighter crop better. The bud on the left is no longer there, so no longer distracting, and it also brings out more the buds underneath the two flowers, which add extra depth and detail to your photo.
