Love the composition Mary - did you shoot handheld or with a tripod ? on my screen it does appear soft, which is what you may have intended. Beautiful delicate colours :-) oops forgot to sign in to blog but will carry on whilst the going is good, I keep getting dropped off the net.

I shot it handheld but it is not as soft as it looks here. Dunno why it posted soft. I'll see if I can figure it out.

And thanks!

Strange I don't remember seeing this one before. It is a beauty, even though a little soft. Actually it looks better focussed on the new bloom coming out behind.

silly idiot of course I would not have seen it before! Saw the date and figured I'd missed it. Yet it was only a week ago I set the dates for the themes. There is no hope for me I'm afraid.
Just re-read my comment and I didn't mean that it actually looks better focussed on the new bloom. I meant that it is focussed on the new bloom rather than the foreground.

Yeah, I just posted it! I was considering entering it in a contest, but I guess I will not.

I am leaving for a week-long trip, but will be back next week.
