I love this creeper, but here the best bit really is the lighting - shows it off at its best

Bokeh from an apple? Brilliant ! Now I'm off to try all sorts of tropical fruits.

:)

Great shot - love this flower.

Hah! Aptly titled! Lovely lively colours.

LOve the colours and the triangular composition.

Thank you all for your patience in stopping by and penning a few words - encouragement is always welcome!

Variation on a theme - B&W(ish) instead of colour. Still couldn't resist

adding some textures. Hopefully it works for you.

It's that time of year for these specimens to bloom. Backlit with some

texture work added. Thanks for any comments.

For the first time in eons, I felt that this flower didn't need a textured

background or any other PS work - just cloned out a few spots and voilá! A

simply elegant bloom - in my humble opinion.

Thanks for stopping by.

Interesting flower and a good use of textures. Nicely framed - ready for the wall! 

A great stain glass window!

Amazing how you work it from the simple pastel starting off images -  also praiseworthy by themselves

I like the peekaboo effect and the yellows and blues run well with each other. Nice one!

A succulent (saved from being devoured by some guinea fowls) that has a

long stem flower that reaches over, touches the ground and sprouts a baby

or two - kind of like an overgrown more exotic spider plant.

I love that it's B&W

I love the composition

I love that you can just see the "waves" of the leaves in the background.

I'm juts not "that" convinced that the tear in the petal adds anything, in my opinion.

However, overall, a great image!

Thank you Roger.

Slowly opening...

I like the natural curve to the flower and leaves.

Comments welcomed.

Thank you

The intensity of the eagle's focus in incredible.

NIce "fresh" looking image.

c-c-c-c-c-cold!

Who left the building to take the picture? :)

Sinuous as only a sand dune can be - you have captured the essence of the dune. Well done!

Brilliant leading line!

Great timing - unlucky fish.

I wonder about the rock in the b/g. Have you tried cloning it out?

Wonderful composition. The saturated colours make it look very hot as well - which I am sure it is..

I would just leave it at :"wonderful panorama"!

Well observed. Interesting to show some of the local culture.
