Have CHANGED MY ENTRY to "a fowl ending"


https://www.fredmiranda.com/hosting-data//500/134320fmGUHL_ants.jpg

Ants exploring a fallen crossvine blossom.

Just a few days ago my fence was covered with bright pink-orange blossoms. Now, most of them are on the ground. Nice to see they are still being appreciated.

Busy week ahead. Good luck everyone!!

Bev, you just don't stop do you.....Fantastic color, the pic speaks well on the theme, the ants and the clarity, you just got it going on "Bevalicious style"

Hi Bev,

What a lovely shot. I love the texture on the flower and the different sizes of the ants. It points to the circle of endings and beginnings very well. Good luck this week.

A depressing image. I love the detail and natural setting. Great use of DoF and colors to convey the loss of life and it's benefit to others.

A great entry,
Chad

Thanks everyone. I'll make this in one GROUP response for efficiency...

Steve R:
Thanks for the "Stevalicious" feedback!!!

Steve S.
Thank you for your kind words, as always. Good luck to you.

Norm:
From my heart to yours, thanks! Glad you're better.

DonT:
Thank you, appreciate the comments.

Chad:
Yes, the image has a bit of sadness to it and also joy. From the flower's perspective it's sad, from the ant's it's happy. Life is very much like that; our perception determines everything. We're so lucky we can change our attitude/perception and thereby change our feelings and go from sad to happy...the proverbial lemonade from lemons. Thanks for the very nice feedback!!

engi:
Thank you for the splendid feedback!

Flibble:
Thanks for the wowzerly splendid comments. Hopefully you weren't viewing my image with those big glasses you're wearing in your entry?! I'll take the compliment anyway.

Mark:
How VERY nice and flattering of you. Thank you. You are already way too talented to learn anything from me, but thank you for the sweet thought. As Mark Twain said, "I can live 3 days off a good compliment." :-)

Love the juxtaposition of life and death Bev. Ace detail! You’re such a perfectionist *hugs*

Thanks, Mike!! I wish I were a perfectionist, then I'd be perfect, right? **hugs** back to ya.

This was one alternate concept I liked .... but I thought the ants & flower addressed the theme best, though not perfectly!

I think "A FOWL ENDING " is just as strong for the theme if not stronger Bev. Not to make you question your choice, both are great but I would defiantly go with the car. It could just be my male judgment but I think it's the power, humor, the overall visual execution and just great photography that grab me. It speaks to me. I see it as a top finalist. Thanks for sharing it. I love it! I had a similar concept with that street sign and this shot is inspiring me to go do it.
