I love your photo – you have taken a different look at a plant I’m sure you see every day of your life. They really do lend them selves to different angles of view, don’t they?

Absolutely. They do offer us their own beauties to be seen and they really decorate our lives as well. Trying not to disturb (even touch them) when taking a picture of a plant and its flowers is quite challenging, especialy when its surrounding background is not supporting. taking a closer look often much better than if it is pictured the whole part. Thank you for your compliment.

So true – backgrounds can be so very busy, and you have to be creative to find a way to compose your image, which you’re very good at! I just got back from the desert. There are lots of busy backgrounds when you look at the wild plants close-up, because many of them have tiny leaves to reduce evaporation. It was challenging, but very beautiful – all the little shapes and the incredibly subtle colors make their own tapestry.

No wonder! I always love the way you look at and the way you take photographs. We seem to have similarity in these matters, don’t we?
