Wildflower in Rain

Powerful, surreal, or as in the dream: very beautiful...tamarah

Really superb image Brian. The composition is flawless and creative. Impressed that everything seems to be in such sharp focus from very close to the distance. Did you combine multiple shots to get that depth of field? Special image either way. 7.

Stunning Landscape in an excellent composition

Molto bella!

Interesting composition and b&w.

Like the high contrast and the diagonal rotten log leading out. Beautiful wide angle shot! Jim

Love the tones, the depth, the complete image. Really excellent!   

Rain and sun and close and far, all together in one remarkable shot. Or is it just a nice product of photoshop with garden flowers "planted" in the nature? For a discussion in a photo forum it would be nice to have some more information. Karl

Thanks everybody for your thoughts and comments on this. Shot this with a compact, a Samsung TL500. At 24mm and f8. love the DOF that you can get with that wa compact. The foreground Columbines were off to the left. I shot them separate, and I moved them into the frame to complete the composition that I had in mind.

Thanks again.

Brian this is superb and I appreciate your honesty! I seem to remember the color version and based on personal preferences, that was even better.
