Hi Annie,

Your purple weed looks like "Vetch". It's the right color and I see a little tendril on it. If it has tiny leaves and the seeds come in a tiny pea pod. I think that's what it is. I love the flower too!

May I say you added a lovely elegant touch to this little weed. Love the DOF! I also like the way the background fades softly away!
Beautiful job My Friend! Wish I had a six! :o) Helvi

    Thank you so very much for the lovely review Helvi. I am so glad you like this photo and that you think it is worth 6 stars.

I can't believe that is not a 5+ rating for this beautiful work of art photo if I had one left you would have it. You rally need to publish a line of note cards. This would jump off the shelves. The magic you created with the background is stunning. The ghost images and what ever else you did creates a wonderful canvas to show off the purple weed. A slight vignette of white could be stunning.

This is an exquisitely beautiful study of this weed (one almost feels embarassed to call it a weed because of its beauty!). In your treatment of this photograph you have achieved the effect of a detailed botanical painting. Just gorgeous!

Wow! I would rate you higher but I ran out. I keep saying to myself every time you post something, that is one of my favorites. But you did it again. Just incredible. I think I will just sit here and look at it for a while. Love the floor mat and need to try something like this. Thanks so much for your skills and sharing,

Comment from Geokat


This is a very lovely and lively weed Annie according to your statement on its ability to grow so well. However your remarkable editing I am sure has had an influence in the overall outstanding beauty of this photograph. The color, detail and texture in the clarity of these tiny petals is amazing with a background of some wonderful layers.

This flower looks as though it belongs to the Sweet Pea family. I have two types in my own garden, one of which is deep pink and the other has orange blooms. No idea if your plant is related but like yours, the orange one appeared on its own accord. I like your treatment of the photograph with further images in the frame but faded with other lays on top. Very effective with a soft and romantic appearance.

    Thank you so very much for the lovely review. Also I can believe this plant belong to the Sweet Pea family, but this is weed and it is tiny.
Comment from Sange


This is so Delightful and Deloverly! =)
Your layers make this soft and elegant almost graceful. Reminds me of the Pickerel weed here at the wetlands.
Love the way it seems to softly sway in the wind.
I would say the skies where I live are now void of stars because I have placed them here.

Those gifted hands and eyes did it again.
Superbulous in ever way just as you are Mia Cara Annie......
Bravo!

Well this is a gain one of your very special compositions that need a 6 for sure , super way to let one weed stand out in a splendid way, hyper macro clarity, super contrast and exposure, super movement in your frame an especial way to let the others look like behind a foggy curtain - super creative skills, always a wonderful vision that is necessary to create a harmonious image - lovely flower image, well done

You always do a superb job of turning photos into works of art Annie. Absolutely gorgeous.
I like the feathery flame background. It looks like a sheer curtain is behind it and behind the curtain are more flowers. It looks delicate and romantic.
