p.1 #1 · #371 Still Life With Flowers

I like doing these still life shots that are reminiscent of old Dutch paintings, so I thought one would lend itself well to the topic "Colorful". I hope you like it!

Is that the best you can do? .....

OMG, what a stunning image my friend. BRAVO. Flowers are nature's laughter, and this is a joyous image. Love the lighting.

Thanks so much, Bev, my dear friend! I'm really delighted that you like it! I've got it over at the B & W forum, too. It would probably make a good cover shot if I ever get my Coffee Table book printed. http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/836383

Fond regards,

Endre

Endre,
Another great entry! Love the natural color, the highlights, reflection and the real live feeling with the peddles on the table.
Best of luck,
Tom

Endre my friend,

Another lovely entry. It is the little details that only you think of that make all the difference, in this case the two dropped petals—wonderful.

Thanks so much, Andrew-Bede, my dear friend! I'm always happy when you like a shot of mine. I guess, as with anything worthwhile doing, attention to small details is what makes or breaks the final result.

How did the christening go?

Although I'm fairly new here, I can say that this is classic Strad! The lighting, the petals, the colors. Lovely.

Beautifully lit as usual. Colourful, but not overwhelming. Very easy to look at.

Thanks so much, Patsy. Usually you don't comment over here at the WA so I appreciate you taking time to do so. It just wouldn't do for m to post a B & W photo into a contest with the topic "colorful"

All the best,

Endre
