Re: PESO 2008 - 152 - GDG
Hi Godfrey: The composition of the iris blossoms the light is really great here, but I find the background a little distracting--I think it upstages the lovely elegance you've captured in the iris blossoms. Still, a great shot.

The short story apologizes for nothing. It exults in its shortness. It wants to be shorter still. It wants to be a single word. If it could find that word, if it could utter that syllable, the entire universe would blaze up out of it with a roar. That is the outrageous ambition of the short story, that is its deepest faith, that is the greatness of its smallness. /quote :-) regards, subash -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

My $.02 worth - I think it might be a stronger image without the lone bloom on the RHS.
