Old but not gone

Withering Calla Lilies

You have had your moneys worth from those. Interesting angle & I like the little star burst on the vase.

I like the light on the vase, it makes for a really interesting background

@paulmann Thank you, these are one of my favorite flowers but couldn't find any inspiration while in their prime.
@deborah63 Thanks, just couldn't throw them away yet.

I have went through your album: you have a great diversity of photos, you have processing skills and good eye. I see you like to photograph details as well natural scenes, much like I so. This week I´d like to challenge you with arranged composition; I´d like you to take a shot that could work as a advertisement in a magazine. It can be anything: a perfume, wine, car, phone.....anything you like but I´d like you to put some thought into the shot and the composition of it. You can choose a ad in a magazine and try to duplicate it if you wish. Have fun & I look forward what you´ll come with

@susale That sounds like it would be good for me and fun. I have been more comfortable just catching a shot and really need to become more adept at thinking how to tell a story visually. Funny I was thinking that I am not happy with many of my 'staged' shots so your challenge to me is truly appreciated.

I am looking at your work and am amazed! You have a larger portfolio and I need to look more so, I will get back to you later today.

@taffy Thank you a lot. I think I almost threw these beauties out since they were going 'south' but glad that I didn't.

@shazzym Thank you very much, I saw the older parts of these lilies like my grey hair, not completely taking over adds character or so my husband says.
