What a lovely series, Marianne. I just love that second one - the composition, clarity, DOF and soft colors all work so well together. #4 is a close second, though.

very nice Marianne
I think I like the last one the best
a little diff an the posing and cropping and it makes you take a 2nd look
and I never thought of having a Spring in San Diego it is so nice there all yr around

Thank you Eddie and Sandra. I am so happy you like these! By the way, Sandra, that last one is sooc, not cropped. It was breezy and I wanted to get as close to the inside without much fluttering, so I moved in close and got what I got! SD is nice most of the year but there is definitely a Spring blooming season!!

Nice series Marianne, like #3 & #5 the best, good composition with a good use of the ROT with the placement of the centre of the flower in #5.

Nice series of shots Marianne. I too like the unusual perspective of #5.

Marianne, these are all very pretty florals. Nice selective focus in these.
Difficult to pick a favourite, but I love the softness and prettiness of #3, and the lovely curly detail of the leaves in #4, and nice light.
