Description

The last one in this series. Postwork or no postwork? That's the question. I've decided to keep it original. Pity the forum discussion is over! As an artist I'd say it's better to take away the yellow on the left (or put it in another perspective, changing POV). Hmmm. To be honest, I was too late to change POV. The flowers came in the shadow. You know the feeling, I guess. Photography is shooting pictures on the right time. Butties fly away, deer take shelter, waves run back into sea, sunlight disappears. That's life. But I'm still happy with this shot. I hope you enjoyed this series! I conclude with some Swiss poetry (to be pronounced in a bit melodious way, and sorry, I don't have an appropriate translation :).

Without postwork the natural beauty is more clear, in the place where it belongs. Again you share something that would take a lot of "boots" to see.

Lady's slipper

What is looking through the branches ?
It is the splendid clog
Lady's slipper it is called today
that is not natty

A moth is his sincerely guest
between three and four it makes rest
Many years it takes till the seeds
fall to soil and sprout
and reflourish after 6 years first.

Do penance now, because
a greater wonder you will never see,
than the wooden clog,
the glorious orchid.
