I like how intense the colors get to be in this type of lighting situation.

Luther, the colors on this are so intense, very nice indeed. I'd crop it down just a bit, so that I only see the central leaf as much as is possible.

I've been to that Arboretum, although it was long ago now. I remember it with great fondness. Thanks for the reminder! Amy

Amy:

Thanks for viewing and commenting. I agree with your cropping suggestion. In fact the print that I have made to exhbit is cropped.

Aloha .... Luther
