White poppies...

Icelandic poppies from earlier in the year....

... sophisticated & aesthetic... (7)Hi...

Pauline, This is beautiful. I love the light and the treatment of the background. 

Superb! This blending is impeccable! Congrats!

Thank you all so much!! I worked long and hard on this to make sure the plant was not taken over by the texture........!!!!

Pauline

Wonderful as you've gotten this look ....Great tones and pp...I reallly like it.Best regards

Like what you have accomplished with this, very old world charm...Needs an ornate frame to finish the look for a wall hanging (not here though, this is just right) or maybe a tapestry on a rod! The lighting and pp work so aesthetically pleasing to my eyes as well as the detail. My compliments

Warm regards, Pamela

Hi Pamela...it is what I was aiming for, so I am doubly glad you thought so too...they can be seen in so many ways, but the petals are fabric, and the stems and pods the frame...people always use the full flower, whilst the partially opened one is so beguiling...

Pauline
