not aware of the series, but this one reminds me of the evanescent nature of smoke

Lorna: Don't stop on my account; these are wonderful. You won't want to hear this but we have callas growing in our garden right now. Only a few flowers but really strong leaves. I love how your conversions focus on the graceful lines. Exceptional image. >=))>

Another great look at a Calla. I like the wide spectrum of lights and darks. This one also seems like a flame.

Thanks everyone for the great feedback. Winter has been long and I was suffering some cabin fever so though I'd use the time to work on my lighting skills as I won't likely see a flower in my garden for a few more months yet. I cleared a room in the house and set up shop and will see what happens. :biggrin:
