Hello again.
Below are some shots of flowers I took yesterday. They are not as good as Gareth's but I hope you do like them.

Grape hyacinth (muscari).

You just killed it. Why do you feel the need to alter somebody else's work?
You assume you know better when you do this. Could you have just suggested a square crop and let the photographer decide?

The opening flower looks nice, I like the contrast with the stamen and the petals

No idea, but I like it! I'd like it even more if you 1:1 square cropped it:

Killed it? Really! For who? Me or you? 'Why do you feel the need to alter somebody else's work?' Well I wouldn't actually call it altering but I just thought it would look better in a 1:1 format so just amended it and posted it up. The OP did mention me in his opening post and asked if anyone liked them so thought maybe I could post up an alternative. All my images I do not care if people download, play and then reupload via the PU image uploader if they feel the image could be improved. I thought this was a community??
'You assume you know better when you do this' Really? I think you'll find you assumed this, I only said I'd like it more if it was cropped. I did not say that it was better so get your facts right please before throwing accusations.

Also, I do find your post a little trolling

Have a nice day now[/quote]

Easy guys
Glowingblue: I do see where you are coming from but it's OK, I have no problems if Gareth has amended a copy of my image.
Gareth: I do appreciate your idea.

Stay happy guys.
Cheers.

Thanks for that - appreciated. I have had a few people greet me like that but more commonly it's 'Salaam' since I am a Muslim But nothing to worry - don't start apologising because I don't take any offence at all.

I never apologise because I am never wrong. Except here, I apologise, lol

It's a funny old game this photography lark!
