Red Columbine

Nice shot!

Jack, was just thinking about you yesterday and wondering what has happened to you. I for one have really missed my hit of "Jacks " images. Hope this is not but a fleeting visit........roger

Beautiful lighting, composition and the inscrutable Columbine is always a perfect subject.... Mike

Jack, I am so impressed with this. An excellent composition, wonderful contrast between the sharply focused flower and the softly blurred background. I also like the contrast in the red and yellow - which is perfect, I am so glad that you weren't tempted to over saturate - and the lovely, peaceful grey. This is so elegant. Very well done. Best wishes, Linda

Beautiful image and so pleasant to view, wishing you all of the best.

Really beautiful.  I like this because it seems to really bring to life this ordinary flower in a way not often seen.

Unique and a most original composition of this flower. The background is lovely and make the subject pop. Very inspiring!

Take care, Pamela

love the light

Fantastic !  wonderful composition, and lighting.

I completely agree with all of the mentioned comments, specially loving artful impressive intentional slight underexposure. regards.
