Ahh- there you are with your gorgeous Agave images- this is my absolute fave, just exquisite !!! The tones , shading and color are all working together with the flowing lines of this plant- great work !

Comment by chalice:
This is my favorite of the three images you have posted as "bluestone" work. The one in the middle is my least favorite of the three. I think I like the deeper colors better than the more pastel tones, which accounts for my liking this one best. I've been interested in floral shots (including agave plants) for some time and post them on my website from time to time. Your work has been inspirational in this regard (I entered one in the macro puzzle challenge and managed to place 25). I'll keep trying (and watching what you do) so I can improve my technique.

I wish you would write a tutorial on how you do this type of photo. I have tried over and over but can not match what you do.

I love the clarity and sharpness in this image. The colors and textures are amazing. I feel as though I could reach into the photo and pick the leaf right up. Such striking photos in your portfolio, I could spend all day here.
