beautiful capture of that wonderful geranium-red color, with fine detail. I can see you practicing your DOF with every shot, this is awesome! The border well chosen, & adds to the charm.

Basil flower

Fresh basil--I hope you have some nice tomatoes to go with it. I know these flowers are very tiny, but much beloved by bees. Well done!

Very nice grouping--the tangle of petals is interesting & I enjoy the lovely color.

Spider Mum base

Lucky you! I tried to grow spider mums for a while. In some ways, I think a greenhouse is required. They are so much fun to look at, it's impossible to resist! There is more BG than mum, almost, so it would be a challenge to get a shot that comes close to what you see. If anyone can, you can! I like the reverse angle very well, & the buttery yellow color. I hope you will take full advantage of having a spider mum easily available & shoot like mad!

The lilies can have very whimsical names, one of them I like to shoot is called "Milk and Wine." This is gorgeous! The FG lily is...interesting.

O dear. Sorry, but I like the variety in borders, it's something I would do myself if I thought I could get away with it. Each one looks to be on a slightly different plane. The hypertexture on all surfaces works well w/the hibiscus. Sweet!
