This is so memorable, and also so beautiful, in so many ways.
A touching tribute to your Mother.
You have such a wonderful touch with anything "Emotive" and also your "Candid" shots.

I have replaced all my bird images re suggestions that they were over processed. I have added no color at all to the three Lorikeets images in my portfolio. I have only used a small amount of sharpening as suggeted. I processed & replaced all three parrot images, with the use of curves, dust& scratches, and noise only.

I have replaced this image with a less saturation version, and actually no added color at all. Also used less sharpening as well. I followed the suggestions below so hope you are pleased with the result.
I must stop doing porcessing at night, as that seems to be when I overprocess my images. Thank you so much for the suggestions and not offended in any way.....

This is just a wonderful macro image, and I really love it.....
It is soft and delicate, but also has a strong appeal to it as well..... Really fantastic focus, sharp and to the point.

I missed this one re commenting during the challenge and saw it the other day in the threads.
I am in awe of this image due to the simplicity and composition.
A great shot here, and love it very much.
The framing is excellent and the focus on the flower is perfect.

This has so much appeal to it and don't know why. I think it is the combination of the soft sepia tones, as well as the "simplicity" of the image. I really love this one.....

This is definately my type of image and love it lots.....
It is something I would do myself, and I like the abstract feel and also the soft cortones. It is just like a warercolor painting.
