.........Ray trimmed the bay tree so I brought in some long stalks and arranged them tastefully in a tall glass vase with a little water and pieces of slate in the bottom. The next morning they were all wilting. So it was back to the roses.
How far away are you?! The centre rose has dropped petals all over my table already so I maybe could not get the others to you in time for you to enjoy them!
Thank you Ivan and for the fav. I have used flash deliberately in the past to get this type of effect but this shot, (one of several after I realised it worked well), came about a bit by accident as I haven't yet worked out how to disable the flash on my new camera!! Those disks you have to sit at the computer and read instead of a paper manual are soooo annoying!
Very lovely . great composition and a sweet capture. Fav.
The Dutch language has much similarity with Germany. Grammatical I think our is easier . Even when a Germman speaks Germans we can understand
Oh thank you for the comment and fav! I can sometimes understand written Dutch but the pronunciation is the main difficulty and I have nobody to help me!
Was just reading you don't like usind the disc to read about camera settings etc. I downloaded my handbook and printed it, not that I have the time to read it properly, but you might be able to do this or your camera in the internet as well
Thanks for that, Karin, and I've just printed a page or two from the handbook on the disk - the print is oh so small! I think I'm just going to print what I need but it is annoying not to receive a proper paper booklet.
@quietpurplehaze Oh, good lord, how I agree! Give me an old-fashioned paper manual anytime. And BTW, I was showing my visiting friend my 365 project and she absolutely loved this shot.
Paula, thanks - you too!
Thank you - the trouble is, Patricia, I'm running out of wall!
That's very kind, thank you and maybe I can find a wall in another room!!!
