Lovely scene, Bill. Really enjoy the colors and the comp that you chose. Exposure seems just right and there is lots of detail in this image. A joy to let one's eye more around and take in the colors and detail. In a perfect world, I might have some color in the ULHC, but that's a small nit. Enjoyed this one.

Lovely detail, Bill. There doesn't seem to be a subject so my eyes don't know where to land. and it's a lovely scene.

Very nice arrangement, Bill. I like the mix of seasons. The square comp works well, IMO. Kudos to mother nature for the scene and to you for seeing and capturing it.

The lighting is the great thing here, Bill - just gorgeous ! There isn't any rest for the eye, but I really think that's fine in this case - a lovely snapshot of nature at this time of year, with the flowers dancing across the frame.

Bill:
Nice splatter of color. I like the vignette which helps to draw the viewer into the center. Lovely image.

Well, I have to tell you I am jealous. I must have admired scenes like this hundreds of times, enjoying the scattered profusion of beautiful elements, but looking for some strong anchor for an image. Duh! If I enjoy seeing it, why don't I just shoot it? The end result is that I have only memories of what I saw, but at least I can look at a photograph of what you saw. I'm really enjoying it, but in the back of my mind, wishing it was mine. There. That confession felt good. Now I can sit back and enjoy this. Thanks for sharing.
