For the next competition I have chosen the theme "Flowers". Any kind will do, but I am looking for unusual compositions.

Winning and Running a Contest
1. If you enter the Show and Tell Contest, please note the closing date and be sure to check back to see if you won.

I planted this "Wild Rose" bush in my front yard.
after a large tree was felled. It is generally thought of
as a pest, but I find it quite beautiful. It does require
regular trimming.


This Sunflower is part of my "Vintage Garden" gallery.
The premise was to show as much detail in the flower
as possible by stripping away the color and accentuating
line and form.


I thought of Van Gogh's quest to paint light when I saw this
Coneflower dancing in the evening sun. Hopefully the light
and color of the flower in this case salute its beauty.
