What lovely flowers. Of course, you are a flower magnet and I always enjoy your floral shots. Your daughter, however, is the loveliest flower of them all. My goodness, she is a beauty and this photo does a great job of showing her elegance.

A very happy birthday to your daughter Patrick. I like you angle you selected, the soft lighting effects, and how the shadows blend into the black background.
I like the composition with the single pink rose, resulting in a simple yet effective outcome, well done both of you

Two posts of your lovely daughter Patrick and two completely different looks. You did a wonderful job on this one my Friend, I love the lighting and your composition is wonderful.
I always enjoy seeing your flower shots. These are no exception.
Thanks for sharing these, Oh and tell your Daughter
I said "Happy Birthday"

Hi Patrick your flowers are once again excellent shots.
You most really like flowers.
Great portrait of your daughter,is it fair to put such beauty along side a mere rose?
Thanks for sharing.
