Default Gold Standard

I think of these colors as the palette of the Old Masters, Dutch artists, in particular, rendered in golds and reds. Thus we come to Act III, the final curtain on the Ranunculus of the Flower Fields of Carlsbad, California. Well...except....did I mention they had a rose garden? Ah, well. Coming attractions.

You have spent a bit of time "framing" these and it does add so much more to the photos...bringing them more into their true form as art. Very appropriately thought out and captioned. Very nice presentation!
