The emperice and flour...
3 July 2006 (290)

Fovant, Salisbury, UK

Pour Marguerite...

Went for a walk up to Chiselbury Iron Age hill-fort to watch the sun set.
In the end, it wasn't that spectacular... -- but the flowers were!

(PS: I love my new camera... -- so many thanks to all of you
who encouraged me to make the move to a DSLR...!)

I agree with Lucie, particularly about the light and how the violet adds richness to the image.

And your talent is making best use of it! Great shot.

Superb image. The dark of the background works great with the white daisy. The green leaves are filling the frame perfectly. Excellent shot. Voted.

C'est fabuleux, les couleurs, la lumière.
J'aime la simplicité de la composition. Les touches de violet font la richesse de l'image.

Congrats on the new rig : )
You are already producing stellar shots with it.
It's a D200 next for me also.
