 Day 19 of 30 Flowers

Rather a pretty weed I've been letting grow in a wild corner of my backyard. I like it in the mornings when it is sort of dark back there and the light pink flowers stand out softly.

PP - converted from RAW, cropped, 2nd layer (Gaussian blur, merged in multiply mode), added border, resized, sharpened with noise reduction.

I like the dark mood in your shots. We don't always have to see things in full daylight to appreciate them. But some unfortunately do not understand this. Lovely image.

I also like darker images. It would be easy to blow out the details in the buds in this shot, and keeping it dark holds the details nicely.

Looks like it is bathing in moonlight. I like the dark images.

Always like a Gaussian Blur presentation. You have done it well.

Good focus and composition, I like how you have the same flowers in the background, but they don't still the attention. Great job!!!

I never knew what these were called. I have always liked their little tufts of flowers. Nice focus!
