Mirror imagePosted by Marion (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 29 May 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio. A picture that I took this morning of my rodo that didn't turn out that well, but with a little bit of editing and framing it became a nice picture.

Those water droplets are a fine finishing touch. 29 May 2008 5:12am @Michael Skorulski: One of the nice things about living on the West Coast of British Columbia are out frequent rain falls which makes for a pretty nice picture if you photograph a bloom just after a rainfall. mosleh from kurdestan_baneh, Irangreat shot, beautiful VIOLET color and dew (bji kurd ) :) 29 May 2008 5:13am @mosleh: Thanks Mosleh, your comments are always appreciated @Anthony Lambert: Nature is wonderful....it rained at just the right time. ;D Ronnie 2¢ from London, United KingdomThe close crop works out well here and there is never any shortage of detail in a flower! 29 May 2008 8:02am @Ronnie 2¢: no, there sure isn't ....I do love flowers as you can no doubt tell by my site.
