We grow nasturtiums somewhat sacrificially: the bugs, particularly weevils, flock to them.
This was a stack, I don't recall of how many photos.

Looks good to me Ron. Still a few flowers here with the mild weather. Did you try a different bg ? Just a thought. Stack looks good

Thanks, John.
The rationale for the frequent white background is that I was looking to print and hang a bunch of these frameless and mat-less: green backgrounds don't work well with typical (warm) wall colors. I think I have enough now, and want to get back into other backgrounds. You have inspired me with your varied (and sometimes non-green) backgrounds.

I love the gorgeous detail that the stack got you here!

The idea of the set of prints sounds wonderful!

Great capture Ron. I like the idea of the set of prints, but I do think that white isn't the best color as a BG for this flower.

Super shot Ron love those details...but sorry not keen on the background.

Very nice sharpness and detail in your stack - as usual! You might clone the small white spot on the upper petal (a very minor point). I can see why the white background will work well for your prints - but maybe not as well in this format. :S3: Still, a very strong image!
