I really needed that little bit of brightness today my friend and your photo for certain gave me that, thanks

What an exquisite flower Diane. This is a fabulous capture and a real pleasure to view. This really is such exceptionally beautiful work my friend! I'm afraid I will just have to face up to the fact that I will be continually be unable to comment as much, because I have no choice but to stick to the advice of my Doctor and avoid long periods sat at the computer at every opportunity. The benefits of which, are that I get so much encouragement when I put a proper shoe on again and I have achieved that by resting my leg and keeping it raised. I'd like to wish you and all your loved ones, a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and successful New Year. Steve :o)

exceptional flower Diane and first class capture

Beautiful picture. Todd

This is a fantastic image Diane, I love the details you've caught, the colors are exquisite and the light is utterly superb. In short you've got excellent control over every element of this picture and it's a superb post! It looks so warm too, which is good for me because I'm feeling winter's chill enough to keep me from going out and taking pictures. Fantastic work!
