What an unusual and exciting presentation of the curvy blossoms! You are creating something newâ€"a symbiosis between traditional and mixed-media art in a personal style. Bravo! This deserves my Six for the week. Cheers!

    Hi Sesha, I wish I could do traditional art! If this is a symbiosis, it would be a work of photography and mixed media that gave the image artistic flair. Whatever you want to call it, I'm super pleased by your reaction! Thank you so much for the awesome review 6 star review! :o) Nancy

Hi Nancy, this image "Lupin-Waves of Blue" is another top shelf effort. Great colour, texture and clarity. Love how the wind creates waves and the background effect. Well done and good luck in the contest :-)

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of that complicated looking blooms and leaves. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

This is a lovely submission to the contest. A wonderful initial impact; the dancing lupins are very interesting. A nice clear image of these flowers, with great focus and clarity. The muted background shows off the blooms well.

Nancy this is probably from un even watering and the wind they are beautiful anyway. I love lupine I grow them too but this year they got crowded out by the lavender. This is a wonderful shot for the contest. I like this a whloe bunch. Ray

    Hi Ray, I found these Lupin in a park so you might be right about uneven watering. Love the colorful hues these flowers come in. Always been a favorite in my garden. I'm so glad you enjoyed the shot! Thanks for the great review! :o) Nancy

Comment from Kathy Banich


Love it! Your artistic presentation to these Lupines is very fun and whimsical, as they are presented in a twirling fashion as though they are dancing. You even have that similar swirl in your background. A very creative and aesthetically pleasing piece with nice color contrast, depth and detail.

So lovely. The soft, muted, and green background created a striking contrast with the purple blossoms and it really highlights its colors. Superb angle, focus, and lighting. Artistic presentation. This photo is a refreshing scene and is joy to view.
