Table for Four?

Comment:
This is one of my favourite images on DPC never mind this challenge.
I just cannot believe that it didn`t end up at the top of the pile.

I can only assume that it wasn`t seen as depicting something extraordinary..although, in my opinion some of the top 20 shots don`t either.
Great image which is going straight into my favourites.
If it`s any consolation..you are the recipient of my 1000th comment which I was saving for a special image.
Regards,
Gordon

A good example of how an effective picture does not have to be complex.
Nicely done

This is the third thistle shot I have come across (so far) and they are all excellent.
Good subject, well captured.

A different approach from the last thistle shot I viewed.. but equally effective..good lighting and nice, uncluttered background.
I had considered going for this myself and now I`m glad I didn`t as I would`nt have bettered the ones I`ve seen.

OUCH!...

I never submitted to this challenge but this was something that I considered going for...you`ve done an excellent job.. it suits the macro approach..good lighting also.

I like images that hit you in the face and this certainly does..there are some markings on the window frame that suggest post processing to darken the interior ?? 5 minutes cloning to clean them off would probably have been to your advantage...not a problem for me though..strong image..perfect for the challenge...9
