The countryside on your windowseal

I planted some seeds I got from someone who got them from flowers in

Italy. Today they started blooming, kind of brightened up my day.

It safe to say that your seeds have come into fruition! Well done Tom.

Shukran, Hasan. Even though I find flowers a very boring subject they still show how beautifull nature and for that, life can be.

Nice colors and great sharpness....DEP IS GREAT TOO...well done

Great details and colours. DOF is ok. imho. Congrats.

beautiful macro

Nice detail and well framed. I enjoy the background as it creates an abstract image to itself. Good job.

Hi, Tom. I met this flower for the first time two weeks ago (it's agrarian here) and was attracted by its beauty, too. Though I'm not shooting flowers, like you, I took a shot of it, trying in a similar manner to connect somehow the man (photographer), the machine (windowseal in your case) and the nature. Your flower (I don't know the name of it even in my own language) is more classy and with a better DOF. BTW, I've had a lot of problems trying to convert this color (purple?) in CMYK and print. If you have a minute look at my last upload, please. Regards. Blago

A beautiful flower and an equally nice photo.
