Yes, dear. It's almost October, and sometimes, that sadness crept in. Will be 2 years. Thanks for the personal thoughts and the precious time to review. That rating is great.

I'm sorry for your loss. This is a great tribute. I wish this was a scratch and sniff. Your depth of focus is amazing. The colors and lighting are bright and vivid. You've framed it perfectly. Great job!!!

A sad story but I can reflect on your comments as I put my family though hard times after a serious motor bike accident last April and am still recovering. The single rose a nice tribute nicely framed and in focus simple but a poignant symbol of respect.

Comment from BruceHeming
I like the colors over a black background and the rose petals are complementary to the green stem. I do believe that the image is slightly soft and without the crisp detail that one would expect in this kind of photograph. When you have such a black background you do not have to look to throw it out of focus and you could use a small lens opening to give you more depth of field. This picture really stands out however.

thanks, Bruce. I appreciate your precious time. I received the same comments from Reviewers that I have great respect, so I will correct that.
Comment from willie
Nice shot!
This is pretty. I like the color and the background looks good. The reason for the four and a half is because the focus is soft. You need to have good sharp focus. I see you shot this at f5.6 which gives you a very shallow depth of field. Next time concentrate your focus on the front side and use a smaller aperture setting... say about f8 or smaller. This will help the d.o.f. and will allow more of the subject in focus. I hope this helps.

Comment from susanlen
I read your notes and I feel for you. I lost my younger brother when he was 45 years old. He went out to play rugby as he always did and never returned. He came off the field after the game and dropped down dead. Sudden death syndrome. When your time is up that is the way to go - but unfortunately for family it is terrible. No time to get used to having a love one who is ill and might die. I agree with your last sentence wholeheartedly.

Thanks, Susan, for also sharing something sacred and personal to you. Yes, sudden death might really be painful, as it comes without a warning. I agree with you, too. Take Care. I appreciate your precious time to review and your thoughts.
Comment from Grumpy Taff
This is a very striking image. The rose really stands out from the background very well. The composition is spot on and the focus is very well balanced. The use of light highlights the bud beautifully

Comment from Faybells
You are so right. We tend to take each other for granted in so many ways. I think generations do this as well and we have lost the bonding thing. I also think we get caught up in pettiness as well. I recently found this saying. Am I living or just breathing. It made me take a step back and realise i was doing more breathing than living. I am changing this and now doing more the opposite. Your brother has had a big influence on you in the past and you will have happy memories of him. I am glad you havaent got any spikes on this rose. Love the dark background making it stand out. One day you will start living again. All the best in your life.

I've visited your Profile and your images are AMAZINGLY EXTRAORDINARY! Hope to know your more.... "You're also a woman of depth and substance."

Thank you for taking the time to look on my profile. think sometimes i have got lucky on my photographs. Will never be as good as some on a learning curve. Think its more important to just enjoy and try to portray what you feel ata the same time. Yes would like to know you more as well

Thanks, once again, Faybells.
Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Excellent tribute to a a dearly loved departed brother. Don't worry, he's happy up there now...
Well, here the subject placement is appealing.
The peach color of the bud is not the conventional one--very sophisticated.
The diffused focusing is visually soothing.
The lighting is dramatic with a dark backdrop.
Great short depth of field.
Thanks for sharing...

Good morning! Its 3:16 here...

Didn't even noticed it. Maybe, get up and have some hot chocolates. It is almost October, and sometimes, the sadness crept in. I'm singing his favorite song today. "I will" by Beatles. Anyway, it is fun to grow up with five brothers, but losing one, is really hard.

Ah, okay That's understable...
-
Here again! That's understandable... I think its really time for a hot choco!
