    Default Epimedium Blossoms

    Grabbed these in my garden last spring on a day when I got home from work early enough to see the light on a weekday. The blossoms of these plants are so small and delicate, and it's so difficult to find a day when the wind isn't blowing. I held my breath and shot between the bursts of breeze.

    Very nice Mary, I like the image, nice soft light and good use of DOF.

    I like the OOF flowers at the top but I would also like to see more room around the main blossom at the bottom, maybe a looser crop might be good also.

    Nice soft lighting and i like the positioning of the buds in the frame, My only nit is I would have like to have some separation between the open and closed bud.

    Hey Mary, very nice image, I like the comp. My suggestion would be to have a tad more on the right side and not so tight to the flower. Well done.
