It took me a while to get a decent shot of this lily of the valley. Either exposure was not right or my hands were shaking. :) This is probably the best of the bunch.

Really like the repetitive shapes with the varying degrees of focus. Nicely done. Regarding the shakes -- too much coffee? :-)

A well balanced composition. The white blossoms really stand out against that green background. Ah, yes, the 'handshake'. I do love my VR lens! It's almost cheating.

My favorite floral scent! I know this was hard to do, they are so very tiny. My grandmother had tons of these in her gardens when I was growing up. I would just sit there for hours and inhale, lol!

More of those lovely flowers that don't grow where I live. I love their scent. Nice use of bokeh to set them off in the picture.

This is sweet, but I'm not sure I'm liking the lighting either. I think it might be the shadows making it looked flashed rather than natural. Know what I mean?

These are one of my favorite flowers. I love the way the little bells bow down, so sweet and gentle

Very pretty! I haven't seen lilies of the valley in so many years. My grandma used to have a creme perfume that had lily of the valley scent. She would let me use it when I was a little girl.
