pretty in pink

this time it's a fresh aqueligia bud taken from the garden.

Hope you like it Smile

ps...I'm still not convinced I've set my monitor correctly as although it wasn't present before I uploaded I can now see banding on the background... can you?

This is beautiful!! Love all the hairs on the stem and bud. Funny this is exactly what I planned to do this evening - but mine come with greenfly!!! I can see faint banding on the background but I think that is more to do with the compression you have used. Viv

Hi Viv! many thanks Smile

Oh believe me... this had it's fair share of green fly, but a quick flick with a paintbrush did the trick Wink

Mmmm. it seems to be since I started using 'save to the web'. It looks quite bad on my monitor... back to the drawing board! lol

thanks again

I love Columbines, Angi. Would you mail a few to me - sans greenfly, LOL. Our blizzard of last week killed everything in my garden. Wonderful detail.Cat

It's perfectly shaped. What a beauty of a plant. The light is just perfect, it really sets off the entire image. Well done. This is a wall hanger. Thumbs Up!
