A perfect sunrise signals more Spring-like weather for the flowers here in the USA Midwest. I'm loving it!

Very nice. The light is nice and the silhouette of the flower is perfect. Well done Mark.

Thank you Greg. I can't take lit flower shots like you do so I tried a silhouette.

Thanks Mado. Flowers are one of those items I don't feel comfortable with. All of the other great shots this week were intimidating so I just went for something different (and easier

)

I agree with the other comments. That is just all around beautiful! Did you use an ND filter? ~Jamie

Thanks, and yes, I was thinking thirds cause the composition was not natural on this.

Hi Jamie. Thanks for the nice comment. I did not use a ND filter. The gradient was done by vignetting in post.

Thanks Klaus. I heard it was cold out your way. I remember the N&W Bosque trip was pretty cold for the FM'ers a while back.
