		| | Love the DOF on this one, like the detail of the flower, reminds me of hair on a windy day. Almost missed the spider/bug on the flower cause I was caught up by the flow of the petals. Nice Capture. |

		| | Ah, there's the quiet little surprise of the winged visitor!  Exceptional detail, good use of DOF, and I really like the more unusual subject.  The bokeh behind is perfect to set off the wispy nature of your subject.  Nicely done! |

		| | crazy bloom with a little critter..clean image Pat! I suspect it wasn't "floral" enough for this tough crowd :) |

		| | Oh cool, if this is how clematis go to seed, I'm a get me some! Interesting subject, nifty bokeh and great title too (I just saw that song performed by one of the guys who wrote it ;-) |

		| | Does look a bit wild and crazy ;-)  That fly better be holding on tight!  I like the sense of movement in the background shapes, like the flower was dancing. |

		| | Looks like a windy shot. Nice detail in the flower head. The insect to me is an added bonus. |

		| | That's pretty cool looking. Looks like a pasque flower or clematis gone to seed. I've seen and photographed them in our botanical gardens. |
