Very delicate - I like it Mary. I never realised Lobelia had little hairs on its petals!

ooooo!!! It feels like the petal are coming out of the screen - great use of focus to achieve such a great 3D effect.

Yes indeed, delicate is the first word i thinked. Colour first, green & mauve are very harmonious and flower itself with it lovely petals. Great play with DOF.

This one's very clean, very dainty. I like that feeling, like a freshening of the palate.
