Back Fill 4 : A single lavender stem

In order that I finish my 365 on the correct day, I have 10 blank days to back fill. This is my Back Fill number 4 from June 2011

This is a single lavender stem in our garden from early summer.

Diagonal across the frame works well, but it is very minimalistic, but I like the detail

This is lovely! Way to go. I hope I only have 10 days missing at the end of a year.

Beautiful, it's so good to see something that grows... Love the background, too!

this is beautiful Phil - superb focus and lovely colours - excellent! There's just some things the old EOS can do that the little lumy can't!
