Default Stepping back into the box

Until my adventures turn up something interesting, I will momentarily step back into the box of familiarity. Hope you enjoy in spite of the lack of creativity!

These are great Patrick, especially the second and fourth shots, but now I'm missing the storyline. LOL. TFS

You do them well, especially two on the composition and the last for outstanding color.

The second. Is that echinacea? Whatever it is, that is a beautiful flower and a great photo! I like them all but that one grabbed me!

I enjoyed viewing every single one of your 'step back into the box' flower shots, can't pick a favourite they are all equally beautiful. Rich in colour rich in beauty.

hey, patrick.....nice set of images you've brought to our table.....

there's no shame in revisiting a subject......this summer, my husband said more than once....."you're going to shoot that again?"........i told him it was less about the subject and more about honing my skills.......i like going back in time and comparing today's shots to last year's and see where i have improved and how far i have to go with the next session......
