Snow Roses

Large view available. Although, I have this image in my "flowers" folder, I

have designated it as a landscape. I'll let the image speak for itself. I'd

appreciate your thoughts and critiques. Thanks. Larry

Nicely seen.  I probably would have taken a similar shot had I stumbled across this!

Really nice. If it was mine, I would clone out the lonely branch at the top right!

Steve,   Thanks for your comment.  Seeing an image is the most important step.  Thanks for taking the time to view this image.

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the comment.  I took this hand held with my new Lumix LX100 that I purchased to lighten the load on trips.  I left in the stray branch as I thought it adds some interest or balance.  I can see how deleting it could be good also. Thanks.    Larry

I agree with the idea of cloning out the branch in the upper right corner. 

A very original and interesting image. Very well spotted and composed, great to see something different and so original. Best regards Ken.

It really comes to life in the larger view! 

I think this would look brilliant printed, it should be proudly displayed in a position where it can be admired! 

I would agree with Tony's suggestion of cloning out the lonely twig (top right) an easy fix. 

Nice work Larry!

Thanks,  Pierre.  Your view is unanimous.  I appreciate y'all confirming this for me.  Larry

The cleaner whites of this offering make it my favourite.  Seems to make the red buds stand out more cleanly.  Also, it's a better (in my mind) composition in that none of the elements cross the frame line.  Wouldn't rush to  trash Snow Roses II though.  :-)  Best, Len.

Len,  Thanks for weighing in on this image.  I fully agree with you.  I printed both images and the second one leaves me flat, while this one is more artistic. I appreciate your opinion.   Larry

Hi Larry, love the composition and the tonal contrast. Well done! Regards.
