I thought the camelia was beautiful but a bit bright so lightened it up a little. Hey, everyone knows that expression, "Lighten up"!
When out walking I see a lot of camelia bushes and I do think they look like a rubbish bush when they go brown but don't quite fall off! Not my choice for a flower but we inherited them in our garden and got given one.
This is beautiful Maggiemae , Camelias in their own right are beautiful bot the colour of this one on the black background makes the petals look so delicate & almost translucent -- super shot, processing & presentation --Fav
Beautiful shot of the Camelia - they are so lovely!! I used to have three large bushes in my garden and they have such lovely early flowers. Now the soil is wrong and they won't grow - very sad!! I love this shot - great processing!! Fav!!
They aren't very pretty when they die but then nothing really is! I love what you have done to this one! If this is not its real color it should be! gorgeous!
You know maggiemae I love camellias & always think they are an amazing site just as the very early Spring is coming...the frost never seems to bother them. I haven't got one in the garden but if I had this would be lovely variety. The pale pink leaves are almost transparent.
The frame really sets it off nicely. Can see that you thought about the pale colors in the photo, and worked them into the frame, gradient or something.
