Comment from Linda Engel
Again, I love your informing notes. Have you thought about writing a book illustrated by your photos? I'd buy the coffee table book. I'm in a Garden Club but we don't always get this much information. We have Black eyed Susan a plenty here in the South
The bright colors and details make this an out standing piece. Is that a Lady Bug on the leaf?

Good eye Linda. It IS a tiny little Lady Bug. As for my notes- I am a fanatic about learning about any new flower before I add it to my gardens so I have pretty complete files to go along w/ all my images. You are very kind re: the book bit and yes, I've been told by others that I should do one. I DO do calendars each year w/ mostly my flower images. I'll have to remember to get in touch w/ you early in the fall when I do up the 2019 one.....see if you'd like one. Thank you for going back and checking out this guy.

This is a wonderful shot of nature. Great sharpness and clarity! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Comment from Stringbean
Wow! A gorgeous nature shot of this lush greenery and bud of this RUDBECKIA plant. Your sharp focus and capture of that lush greenery captured so well along with those intricate fibers on the plant. Good camera techniques and good light handling revealing those spectacular details and clarity. Perfectly cropped and well composed shot. A perfect exposure and white balance. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing.

Well this is a lovely surprise this morning John! Afraid it feels like for-EVER before the flowers are going to be growing again. So...do I take requests? lol sure. What do you have in mind?? Going to be a while before I can do flowers......You are a doll for sharing a gold star w/ this one. Made me smile on this VERY snowy day here. Thank you.

Comment from karen zima
Wow! Super stunning photo with a eye-catching appeal. On first glance, the composition grabs you. The green petals of the flower are framed in a way that is artistic. The purple inside is full of detail and sharply focused. The little bug on the petal is an added bonus. Nice capture.

Comment from Malmax
This is a beautifully detailed photograph of this black eyed
Susan bud. I love the deep burgundy color is has, perhaps it's the light but it looks wonderful. The capture of the small lady bug is adorable and adds a lovely bit of interest.
The tiny hairs are so vivid and excellently shown in this bloom. Beautiful green color also adds to the beauty of this shot.

Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Deborah,
A beautiful picture of this Rudbeckia ~ Black Eyed Susan in Bud with what I think is a four spot Lady Bird on one of the leaves protecting the bus as it begins to open. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. When I was a child my mother wouls sing to me "My Pretty little Black eyed Susan" (My eyes are green) it was a while before i knew it was a flower!

Why thank you so much Susan. What a lovely surprise to find this very excellent rating from you. I hope you know how much I appreciate it. ...and loved the story of your Mother singing to you of her "pretty little Black-Eyed Susan" I'm sure the 'Susan' was much more important to her than the color! Thank you again.
Deborah
