Congratulations! This is the Image of the Week selection for the Flora and Macro Gallery, week ending 11th May, 2012!

This morning I was with the first light in the forest. I made a series from these tiny white flowers, all are a bit different and this one looks like a soft focus Wood Sorrel fairytale to me, hope you like it.

Very cool. Excellent use of blurring in both foreground and background in a way that enhances the subject rather than distracting from it.

I enjoy this very much. A dream-like work of art.

Beautiful composition and light - the OOF areas add a lot.

Hi

A beautiful interpretation of this scene – I think this certainly could come from the pages of fairyland :lol: :lol: :lol:

Beautifully done

All the best
