Fine image - nice light on the beautiful bloom. I think the flower is a grevillea, there are many species.

Thanks Tom. I will be more diligent in future. I have a similar plant growing in my back garden.

Hi

A nice little image of a plant that I know don't - so that's just add to the pleasure for me at least

Thanks for sharing


All the best
Matthew

Thanks Matthew,

Every now and again an image pops out and slaps you in the eyes. This causes your trigger finger to quiver, your heart rate to slow to reduce camera shake and you get tunnel vision. When it's all over and your vision returns to normal, you look at the LED screen and think 'Wow, did I create this image?'

Cheers,

Atom the Yank
