Really nice photo of plumbago, love the blue/lavender color. Funny, it looks a lot like phlox. It does really well under all conditions too. The way you photographed it in partial shade is great Worthwhile to do gardening, feels great to have something to show for your work. Paula

Wonderful shot. I like the clarity and focus. I like the light and shadows. Nothing I can say that would make this any better. Thanks for sharing.

A beautiful picture of the Plumbago blooms in the shade with the sunlight filtering through to light them through the gaps in the leaves & branches above them. Artistic composition & soft lighting superb camera techniques with sharp focus.

Comment from soulfeeder
Very lovely and they all look so fresh. Love their freshness and their blue hues. Clarity of lines and the petals are crisp. Nice contrast with the green leaves. I think, I want to see an increase in brightness, just a touch. Overall, this is well captured and is framed well. A pleasure to view.

nice capture of a beautiful arrangement of flowers...unique lighting scheme in place as the shadows create different tones to the pigmentation of the petals...nice focus and clarity...well done Mary and thanks for sharing
