Excellent framing. Superb photo. Captures the sadness (imho) of what we all will eventually go through. Thanks for sharing.

Terrific shot, David. I find this stage as beautiful as full flowering, in its own way.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Thanks to all my friends on the PU Gallery for the great comments on this pic. I'm not a very good judge of what you will like and I'm always surprised when a picture attracts a lot of comment as this one has.

Tones and detail are also very pleasing.
Well done!
