Beautiful flower picture, Linda. The flower itself is perfect but I really like the blurred background, the contrasted and complementary colors as well as the black frame. Best, György


George Black   {K:101993} 3/19/2006
These are photogenic blossoms, and this one especially fine. Hope to catch up with your shots. I've been very sporadic due to competing demands on my time.

Best wishes,
--George


Linda Bique   {K:73886} 3/19/2006
Thanks George, not to worry really, I am the same way! Life has a way of keeping me very busy too!! :)

Linda,this is a real beauty!...you have come back with strong shots and nice presentations...another name change i see..LOL..and back in PR but a different city?

Linda Bique   {K:73886} 3/20/2006
Hi, I see you've had a name change too...LOL..Fajardo and Puerto Real are kind of synonymous, just a preference, Puerto Real is part of Fajardo. Next time I'll use another one just to keep you guessing, hehehe...good to hear from you!! Hugs!!

Susie OConnor   {K:34798} 3/20/2006
I really like this perspective on the hibiscus Linda. I mean to shoot some more of them this summer and hope you don't mind if I file away this idea... This is one of my favorite flowers and I love to see shots of them. Nice job.

Saeed Al Shamsi   {K:47543} 3/20/2006
Macro settings are ideal for main subject that is small enough like this hibiscus flower not to get lost in its surrounding. A common bad habit that inexperienced photographers get into, is feeling the need to leave a large gap of useless space around the subject.
your arrangements moved in close and cutting off peripheral details is great and preferable in framing it this fantastic way, so leads to shots with increased interest and impact and brought a new dimension to everyday subject.
Framing, selection, and composition of excellent choice.

Hi Linda

You have done a fine job here. Nice delicate detail in the flower. Sharp in all the right areas.

Well done friend.

Mark ;-)


stingRay .   {K:136763} 3/20/2006
Breathtaking composition sweetie. The colours are stunningly beautiful and the clarity of detail is superb. Fabulous dof and I love the way you have isolated the petals in that clear space to the left and the stamen onto the green patch. A truly wonderful floral composition my dear Linda. Well done to you, all the very best as always...Ray
