An interesting set! Imaginative processing has produced some striking images. I particularly like the poppy seed head - bold, dramatic, strong lighting.

Amazing how often a fair breeze turns up to help when you're photographing flowers...

thanks Steve, thats not quite how i expressed it at the time

Another super set... particularly like 4, 5, and 9...

Best

Never afraid to experiment with alternative processing - another interesting set Joe, great variety and nice compositions

thanks, Bill , John may try a bigger ext tube or double up a couple.

Lovely set, especially the more processed ones - the PP brings out a more personal point of view and puts our imagination to work. 1, 5, 6 and 8 and 9 in particular...
