Close-up...or no..

I did think of cropping this to accentuate the rhododendrons beautiful flower but then I thought I liked the small scene where it grew!

I'm getting so much better with my arm break injury -not as much pain.. but have been told by Specialist and physio - not to over do it! It might break or get out of place! Quelle horreur!

Beautiful capture of this lovely scene and light Maggiemae! I might have cropped a bit off the left towards the small tree trunk.

So good to hear that your arm is doing well :-)

[Maggiemae]

@ludwigsdiana I appreciate your comment, Diana! It gives another look at the scene!

[Delwyn Barnett]

A bright pink right through to nearly white. It is a stunning flower. Regarding the cropping, the small scene is a nice one. But really it is the rhodo flower that is the hero of the scene and here the trunk of that tree does draw the eye because of its dominant position one third in from the left.

[Maggiemae]

@dkbarnett I agree Delwyn - but I thought the balance of the shot needed the space on the left of the flower!

A lovely image

I love it as a scene rather than cropped to the rhododendron, Beautiful light and flowers ,

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

[John Falconer]

Great shot. (And follow the physio's directions)

[Valerie Chesney]

Such gorgeous flowers ..........
Pleased you are healing!

[Casablanca]

Nice colours and light. Yes, obey the Physio! Wishing you well

It’s very pretty and I like your idea to keep it at the wider angle. It’s nice to see the light.

So glad to hear you are improving, but so sorry you still have so much pain

[Brian]

Lovely

[Mags]

Lovely colors!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

the colours are so lovely!

[Thom Mitchell]

I wish *our* rhododendrons looked so healthy!

[Pat Knowles]

Definitely better to leave it like this, the contrast of the darker greenery & the lovely colour is a delight. Fave for me, do take care & no doing too much.

Nice capture

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn I don't have much pain now, Katy - just when I do something which puts a strain on the arm. That will get better too!

[katy]

@maggiemae good to know Maggiemae

[Maggiemae]

@happypat I could get used to just sitting in a chair all day, Pat!!

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae Haha me too Maggie but that’s a no no definitely! I could sit & read a book all day & I have no excuse at all. You will continue to improve I’m sure!
