Oh, I can feel the sun on my cheek. This is truly lovely. I have a question. You wanted to continue doing BW wouldn't this make a great BW. Bet you didn't expect that!

[Niki]

You're in spring and I'm in autumn ... the two bestest seasons.

[Richard Sayer]

@joansmor Yes Joan, it would... But we were asked to think about macro backgrounds this week and, for the first day, I wanted to match the background to the shot. I do have another album though...

[Joan Robillard]

@vignouse okay is the background achieved in the photography or in the processing? And bw in your other album would be terrific.

[Richard Sayer]

This is lovely, a true evocation of spring. Maybe I should show it to the plants in my yard to inspire them to try a bit harder.
