Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Others, like you, stay awhile , make footprints on our hearts and we are never the same. Thanks Barb, it is beautiful.

Marion from Cincinnati, United States

WOW, what a fantastic shot. Your lighting is amazing! How did you do that?????

@Marion: Natural sunlight. I did burn around the edges of the image to darken which brought out the light in the center. Thank you, Marion for your nice comment.

This is just beautiful close up photo...like that the flower spreads all over the photo and it is not in the center of the image!
