I found this group of 'stair-stepped' Lazy Susan's this morning, pulled out this comp.
And the lazy days of summer are at the top of the staircase:smile:
F/6.3, 1/1000th, ISO 400, Sigma 150mm f/2.8 @ 10:21am & clear.
Monopod for support.

Howard:

Very pretty and I like the DOF in this composition. :toast:
Two steps to the right and 2 steps to the left and you are in green 'emptiness'.

Yes, an image that must be seen in the larger version for enjoying the awesomeness and the depth created by the marching squad. I love the photo.
Take care.

Howard - I like the grouping selected by you, works perfectly well. The 2 blooms closest to the viewer are in excellent focus and the rest OOF and kind of framing the 2 quite well.

Good work :cool:
