my first words I would like to express is pretty for this piece of art your sharing with me, where do I start I love the way you thought about from the black background that just adds more attention to your white flower rain drop subject, t I can see the texture of these 5 flowers and the close up center postion of your subject and the rain drop that hang like tiny marbles again just brings more attention to your white flower subject good job !

Comment from Linda Bickston
Love this bit of instruction about this flower. I really like phlox now that I know more about them. These beauties are perfect, especially in the dark, with the drops of rain upon their delicate petals. Excellent.

Comment from Lolly Cardinal
Thanks for the info.
These flowers are so white and clear on this beautiful background.
Petals are beautiful with water drops on them, they seem to have very good energy. Properly shadowed, centered and detailed these "Davids" are magnificent and are an awesome eye viewer.
Thanks for showing.
Congratulations and good luck.
Have yourself a magnificent day!

Comment from Sange
MAGNIFICENT capture Doc!
This proves that when one shoots manually you can shoot white or any color and get controlled exposure/white balance.
I know the challenges you faced shooting in the dark, flashlight held between your knees and staying Rock Steady to shoot this at a very low shutter speed.
The petals have a velvet like look, the focus is sharp, white balance is controlled and the raindrops are like glowing diamonds.
Excellent camera techs here Doc!
Bravo!

Well you are WRONG Doc.
I gave you A few sixes.
What I can remember is one for a winter
Snow capture and two others for flowers, Heart of a day Lily and Ratibida in the evening.

OH LORDY....but you are correct. How ungrateful of me to have forgotten....ahahahah. Seriously though....I stand corrected but appreciate THIS one just as much despite it not being the first.
-
Indeed!!!! Pfft.
Lucky I like you... I will forgive your bad memory due to your not feeling 100% yet. LOL!
-
Indeed! THAT made me laugh. Now I appreciate not just the extra star but your forgiveness as well.
-
Well good! Nice to be appreciated... I am GOOD for your Health. Best keep me around Doc!
;) Pfft

I was laughing at your use of the word 'indeed' Luke, btw noticed my brand new heater and was very impressed so yes, you ARE good for my health.
-
Actually My Shadow (Eileen) and I are both Good for your Health. :)
We wanted to make sure you are toasty warm this winter with no worries.=)
Comment from drmerlin
This is an absolutely stunning image. I can easily see why it earned an "All Time Best". The composition is superb against the dark background. I love the desaturated nature of this. The detail and textures is wonderful and the lighting is perfect.
Very well done. Thank you so much for sharing.
