Photo Information
On taking in the scenery on this very windy day we came across a bunch of flowers that had been laid, obviously for someone who had passed away, maybe a special place for a certain someone, i didn't take a picture of the flowers that were laid but took this one with wild flowers close by.

Very good Maria, great tones and the colour pop on the small flowers just lovely. I love the wildness of this place too. Best wishes Trixie

Well done Maria! Simple and direct with fine post processing.
Isn't "Glossop" the most Northern of names? One couldn't imagine a borough of London being so named. Mind you, we can manage "Nempnett Thrubwell"!
Best wishes,
Andrew

Such a simple but so effective composition, it portrays the stark barren isolation of the landscape perfectly, the little flower with the colour pop is a great juxtoposition. Very nice PP treatment as well.

Thank you Andrew, yes it does sound very Northern, and i wouldn't imagine you have a Broadbottom either
it's just next door to Glossop. Kind regards Maria

A very different perspective from the normal landscape shots that works absolutely brilliantly. The techniques you apply to your shots of flowers are definitely in evidence here but with a different twist. I really like this photo and I think it is one of your best!

This flower has an oversized stake. I like the composition and the combination of the sepia and the colour-pop effects. Well taken shot.
