I love the silky softness, but the background is quite busy, perhaps a tighter crop minimizing the background or a longer focal length lens the next time to blur the background.

Not sure about the right, but I love the softness as well, love the toning, named perfectly.

I have similar milkweed shots. They are a nice subject when the light is right. Seems backgrounds are always busy in milkweed images, due to where they like to grow. I like yours.

Thanks Lazlo, everything seems to wind up some kind of sepia tone this time of year.

Luminous like our hopes, delicate like our dreams and ephemeral like our life.

Thank you Geoff, I agree with you about the places where milkweed tend to grow.

Seeds are one of the best illustrations of hope, dreams and life, thank you for the reminder, Marcelo. Another thought about milkweed - it is the exclusive host for the larvae of the Monarch butterfly.

I much prefer the modified image, perfect toning to go with the white of the petals. Beautifully done.

Cheers Ray
