About Strange looking flowers! Reminds me of elks... or those ghosts in that old "Pacman" game, but here with horns!

But they are called "Shooting Stars".

nice shot Kristina


James Silcock   {K:12501} 2/13/2005
I too thought they looked like the ghosts from Pac-man...very weird looking flowers. Great colours you have captured though and their white "crowns" contrast well with the dark grren background.

Thanks.

Vladimir Popovic   {K:1962} 2/13/2005
Very nice colors and good details, well exposed folower, nice and soft bokeh. I suggest tight crop (portrait orientation, maybe) and/or asimetric composition (position of flower). Good work, Kristina.

Hello Kriss!Very pretty "Shooting stars"!Excellent dof and colors!These are so unusual but really very nice!
Thanks for all Your excellent comments to me!MUCH appreciated Kriss!
I would like to share a poem I wrote over a year ago also titled "Shooting stars"
I hope You enjoy it!
My best to You Kriss!...............John

Shooting stars

Take me from this shallow place
Lead me to your deep embrace
Hold me there till I am saved
From this dark despair

Find my soul among the ruins
Recover all your hands will hold
Place it by my broken heart
Cover me with a blanket of gold

Bring me back from the battlefield
Mend my wounds with a wrapping of love
Hold me tight till I can walk again
Lift my head to look above

Encourage me with words you say
Tell me I?ve got a second chance
Push me away from the pain I feel
One step closer to the dance

Don?t leave me in my time of need
Don?t leave me always reaching out
Come closer with your compassion
Rid my mind of foolish doubt

Let me go when I am able
Just an armlength from your heart
Push me towards the path of hope
From my despair I?ll soon depart

I?ll need you near me if I fall
I?ll need your love to mask the scars
To raise my body towards the sky
Where I will gather shooting stars?
