Hydrangeas vi
Posted by Marion (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 22 June 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.
This is the last one of this series. It was pretty hard to pick a favorite, so here are a few.
@Michael Skorulski: Thanks Michael, they are one of my favorite flowers if one can really pick amongst all the beauties that God has given us.

Not sure I like hydranegeas a lot (as plants/flowers, I mean), but this is a great montage of lovely pictures. Well done!

@Vincent: Thanks Vincent, I am glad you liked it. Hydranges are one of my favorites. They come in so many varieties and colors. If they just came in the pale blue I would be with you in not liking them that well. :))

Fantastic finish, wow but you know what...I think I would have dropped the last row...not that they're not beautiful, but somehow, it...I don't know, can't explain it, it takes away from the comp then again it could be I'm just weird and probably legally blind ;)

@Lorraine: Yup, it's confirmed, you are weird 'cause it takes one to know one!! :)). I really do see what you mean, the last row somehow doesn't blend in with the rest. However that collage maker wanted that many pictures and you know ...

This is excellent illustrative work, beautiful too... I've though about doing this sort of thing but being inherently lazy haven't yet. :)

@Earnest: I have not mastered true collage work yet either. This is done with a program attached to my Corel PaintShop Pro called Corel Media One. It makes it pretty simple to do. Thanks for your comment Earnest.

@standley: Thanks Richard. I think that's why I love hydrangeas so much .. because of the variety.
