This looked much better in my mind then it turned out so any comments would be aprreciated. I wasn't real happy with the focus, I had to angle the camera to get the picture and the fence blurred. Weather has taken the opportunity to try again, and the bloom is fading. Oh well, there is always next year.
Very emotive shot with a lot of conflicting symbology. This is a very engaging piece! Please DO NOT be disappointed with it, I think it is spectacular and I applaud your vision for composing such a rich image.
There is a tender poignancy and juxtaposition in this shot that is very compelling to me. A stalwart seeking of the sun no matter what the circumstances. Very different, very nice. :)
