Chicago Creek Flowers
Here are some of the wildflower shots I got up Chicago Creek. There were lots of Columbines, and I don't have many shots of them, so I tended to concentrate on them more. I didn't shoot many macros because the setting for the flowers was just so engaging.

Comments and critiques welcome, and thanks for looking,

Morris

Morris:

Great set, my favorite is #1, then #5. I agree, the setting is beautiful.

Morris, 1,2,4 & 5 are terrific. Actually, I like them all, but I did find eye drawn to the aspen trunk on the left in #3. In #1, you did a great job of incorporating the aspens and the downed logs. #2 with the dew on the flowers is more than just a keeper. Great work!!!!

No 1 is my favorite. I'd be tempted to crop just a tad off the bottom. In a beautiful setting like this, I probably wouldn't have done much macro shooting either, and would have opted for the wider view. Nice work.

I love your floral stuff, Morris, especially number 5. You should just quit landscapes entirely, who needs that stuff anyhow. :wink:

If I had to pick a fav it would be #5, Keep em coming!

Morris, more terrific stuff from you! I like them all, but 4 and 5 are a notch above the rest!

What can be said that hasn't that hasn't already been said. This is a masterful collection.
I like all of them.
