Explosion of colors

by Roel Wijtmans

Gallery: FloraPosted April 3, 201388 views5 comments
After navigating through a dense fog, I suddenly found myself in the middle of this small field, filled with fantastic colors. There's yellow, blue, green, orange, pink.... I've never seen such a collection of colors before.

Skuleskogen national park, October 2012, f/18, 1/4s, ISO 800, 23 mm (absolutely no idea why I used ISO 800, must have been misty in my head as well)

C&C welcome (large version included)!

The large view really shows all the nice detail and colors, I like this very much Roel. Nice find, and beautifully done.

The larger image is a must for critique, as the smaller image suffers from compression. I like the explosion of color very much, although a place for the eye to stop and rest would be nice. The fat black border I could do without. A cheerier color might be more suitable. :smile:

Roel: I don't recall you posting here before so welcome to the finest Flora gallery on the planet and thanks for a fine contribution. The larger version is really a delight. Is this a seaside locale? Reminds me of similar plant life I've seen on the Oregon coast. Great to have you aboard and looking forward to more.>=))>

Thanks for the comments everyone!

This is indeed my first post in this forum, Bill. About the place, it's about 2 km off the coast, so you were quite right with guessing the location!
