Heartleaf Bergenia Cordifolia

I tool advantage of my trip to the yard for the B&W Nature challenge ( http://365project.org/marilyn/theme-challenge/2012-05-08) to take a few other shots and liked the way this one turned out.

@elizabeth264 Thanks, Elizabeth... I appreciate your kind words... :)

[Deb]

Nice composition! Beautiful colors that compliment each other :)

[Catherine W.]

Cool pov! Could just lay on my back and stare up at that all day!!

[Marilyn Wigen]

@wannabe Thanks, Catherine... I was glad I didn't have to lay on my back to get this shot because it would have been in wet dirt and gravel! I used the front-facing camera on my phone so I could just bend over and see pretty well what I was shooting... it's as much luck as skill! :)

@deburahiru Thanks so much, Deb... I used the front-facing camera on my phone so I could just bend over and see pretty well what I was shooting... so the composition is as much luck as skill! :)

@marilyn Hey now...don't ruin my beautiful afternoon dream!

[Marilyn Wigen]

@wannabe Well you are more than welcome to come on over and lay on your bac and stare up at that... I will even put down a mat for you! :)

[Catherine W.]

@marilyn Ha! Thanks!!!!

[Netkonnexion]

Wonderful!

Beautiful composition and POV I love the diagonal rule of thirds you captured and of course the frame completes it!

[Marilyn Wigen]

@netkonnexion Thanks!

[Marilyn Wigen]

@grammyn Thank you so much... The diagonal rule of thirds was total serendipity... I was using my phone's front-facing camera since the ground was muddy/gravelly and I didn't want to lay down and I could sort of see what I was shooting, but certainly not well enough to compose! Another HA... :)
