Hi Michele,

Friendly greetz and have a nice day, Albert Jacobs

Hello Michele,
Excellent floral, with great use of DOF. Your POV is perfect. You learn really fast. I think this shot is also good for a square crop, so I added an example, hope you don't mind. Well seen and good result. Compliments, my dear friend !
Friendly greetz, Albert Jacobs :)

Dear Aniko,
Thank You for your lengthy and flattering comments :) I am soooo sorry to hear about your lack of rain , and continued droubt--- Because I am surrounded by so very much water I can't even imagine how your life is effected in so many ways with too much Sun-- It sounds so appealing but I know that we all need a balence of the seasons.. Take Care my dear friend.
Hugs to you, Michele~

Truly a stunning capture with cheer and the wonder of Spring! Very nicely captured with, to my eye, perfect DOF and a general warm feel.
Here we have no sign of autumn yet! Not a single leaf is turning. Today was so very hot, just like summer. I don't think we'll get much of an autumn show this season, much to my dismay as a photographer.
Again I congratulate you on this super image!
Hugs to you, Aniko :)

What ? Remember more stuff again after my first DOF BG blur shot ?????? Well--Ok, maybe this is why the image looks a bit wierd as a thumbnail-- (?) I have to say I compare it to billiards for me-- when you see your ball sink before you hit it ! Ha !! The games of 'Focus' I love it ... and rule of thirds .
Sincerely .. lots of appreciation for You Wise-One :)
Regards, Michele~

I do not see the shadow near the bloom and the blurry effect is what gives more effects by my opinion for your bloom !!! :) Sorry , but I still do think it is for 7 +++ Hugssssssss, Srna

Regardless I appreciate your kind and supportive words dear friend !!! Warm Hugggssssss Michele~

Yes..they are were really blooming yesterdasy and NOW they might just freeze cause altho yesterday was mild and 'no rain' today is no rain so far, and 37 degree's !!
Thank YOu for the wonderful comment dear Annemette... Take Care,
PS We are on the 45th parrellel (sp) and I think Denmark is higher..that's why you get the longer summer nights... We get them but just for a short time... maybe 3 weeks it is actual day-light until 10pm .. Who knows what will happen since they have messed around with the so called 'day-light savings time' AGAIN. Yep--- We are all mixed up &^%#@ lol!! Michele~

Are they already blooming in Oregon?! Okay then we don´t have the same climate I guess. They bloom around Eastertime in Denmark. Excellent DOF! Fresh and inviting Springflower. Best wishes Annemette
