Purple trillium repost

I liked the way these two trilliums looked in front of the tree trunk. It was a bit windy, so had to try to time shots when the breeze stopped.

Those are beautiful. This works a bit better for me with a bit cropped off the top (to about the top of the leaf in the upper LHC) and the bottom (to eliminate the brighter flowers down there). Nice capture.

I agree with Phil's crop suggestion. A really lovely comp and the colors are nice as well.

I realize that I have posted the wrong image. The comments below are correct in the need to crop this closer, the proper image is attached.
