About Original title, don't you think?!!

The reason for this is that I got home from a 4 hour ~ excellent ~ church leaders' meeting at 11.20 p.m. and then spent 55 minutes trying to get my internet connection sorted out, which had bizarrely gone wrong without anyone touching it!!

So I'm feeling a little brain-dead!! (Some would say, 'what's new?'!!)

But at 12.19 in the morning I'm having a little difficulty in thinking of punchy titles for pictures.

No prizes for spotting the gull in this one!! And the answer to the question: 'Was it photoshopped in?', is, '1948 in Llandudno'!! Are you with me?!!

Or, as the Vikings used to say: "Pcs fcesenjf ;wsnv soiv jpifh [oijsf ]a][e;c j s`v!!!!"

Good night!!

Hm... sorry..but I just saw it right now... ;-)
I think it's...eh...orange..kind of.. ;-)
LOL
I think it's wonderfull...the sharpness is increditable!!! I'm not good at making my photos sharp..so I have to ruin them in PS.. ;-)
I also like..that you have NOT cropped it...I mean..that you still see the wrinckled day-lily from yesterday!! ;-) That's great..and turn your photo into something special... and NOT just a daylily...ok???
LOL

Bye..and take care..
Merete :-)

Goeie Middag Chris!
Normale mense slaap wanneer jy nog voor die komper sit en poeding eet! Pragtige foto ... komposisie is baie goed en ek hou van die donker, intense kleure. Wonderlike DVV en soos gewoonlik, baie elegante en toepaslike raam.
Goed gedaan en baie geluk met hierdie submisie.
Geniet jou dag.
Jou pienk vriendin,
Linn

PS : Now if you really want to know just what the heck I wrote, you will have to go shoot a PINK PINK PINK flower and dedicate it to me! Yes, and in your "about" you will have to tell the whole world just what a fabulous and budding photographer I am, and that I deserve a bigger and better camera. Not a D70 because you know it is out of the question ... but definitely something better than my curent little toy Oh ... and of course, my comment on your image is in Afrikaans, one of our eleven official languages in South Africa!
:-)))))

I Love this on the composition works very well as does the DOF focus on the flower. The complimentary colors in this photo really make this one jump out of the screen.
Gutten Nacht, Tim

Nice one dear Chris, but maybe a little bit too dark for my taste cause it has lost the vibrancy of the natural life IMHO. but lovely
Kisses, Biliana

Well, I'm not big on florals really, but this looks very nice. Sharp where it counts with an excellent background blur.

And to answer your question, yes I'd love to meet up with other UF members. Midlands sounds fine to me.

Hoi Chris, nimm's nid e so ernscht. Söscht händ d'luut s'gefühl du häsch würkli n ecke ab! s git luut diä schlafft alle zu diä Ziit!

No that's not Viking, that's swiss german for "hello Chris, don't take it too hard otherwise everyone will think you really are going crazy, we all sleep at this hour".

Anyway nice you got your connection fixed and by the way nice photo :)

Cheers Neil

Beautiful floral shot, Chris. Superb color saturation and light. I never succeeded in shooting a day lily outside, but yours is perfect.
Have a nice day...Günter

?what?no gull? LOL

Geezzz Chris, this is one fantastic photograph! I'm getting very jealous of that camera of yours, in fact I'm now drooling, this is BAD!!! I've already warned my husband. I'm used to good optics, when I had my business I used only Hassleblad...after I sold, I just kept a 35mm (film), haven't used it onec. Got the digital and NEVER thought I'd want anything better than my G2...........WRONG.

Sorry, back to your image. It's quality is superb, lighting also is superb...what more to say, oh yes, it looks 3D! I'm going to make it a favorite!

VERY NICE,
Lori :)

Great image Chris. Love the composition and tones. By the way, did you know that a Hod's as good as a sink, to a blind Norse?

Cheers John

Well, it's now 12:46, I've caught up on all my friends' wonderful pictures and not a single, solitary person, (or even a married, one-of-a-crowd person!!), has even looked at this one! (Sob!! Lonely tear drop falls into cold chocolate! "Hang on, I'll get my camera!!")

So I'm going to bed to dream of Schummian mountains, Bowdenian flies, Rakocevician bubbles and Losekian lilies!!

See you in the morning?
