A Daylily abstract.

Thanks a lot for your comments on the Rose and do let me know what you think of this one.

Gorgeous, Ram. Has your signature style. The lines, curves, and colors make this a superb abstract, IMO. :toast:

Ram:
Fabulous and wonderful abstract with your signature style. The edge is so sharp it is scary.
This one is going to prove you wrong about 2/10 people liking your daylilies - its going to be more like 99.9% liking this. :biggrin:

Beautiful quality and color toning, Ram. I like the strong diagonal and the curve too.

Regards,

Carol

Ram,

This is an exceptional image for my tastes and I admire it very much. That said, I might consider straightening/smoothing the curve of the line on the viewer's right about midway up the side. Although I can also understand an argument for leaving it as it is. Beautiful vision.

Beautiful abstract with the pastel colors and flowing lines. As a very minor nit, there's a bit of a hard edge created by the halo just above and left of center that seems out of place.

Another emotion, Ram. Will you sell me your ND200 (with your ability of using it)? Bravo!
Take care.

Ram: Playing catch up after a week at work that's great for the pocketbook but rough on the mind and body. This certainly helps to soothe the mind. Beautiful pastels and lines and I like your POF choice. Marvelous. >=))>
