Beside my carport,
blossom opens to the sun
in red, gold, and green.

Thank you. Coming from one as attuned to aesthetics as your work demands you to be, the comment is especially gratifying.

Thank you so much. I really ought to find out what sort of rose it is one of these days. I do love the color, though.

Well goodness, what a nice compliment from you! You just made my day, thank you :)

Very pretty :) I've seen it before, obviously, but I had no idea you'd taken the picture yourself :heart:
You should submit your artist's comments as a separate deviation, it reads almost like a haiku or something ;)

:nod:Almost. Thank you for thinking the picture was commercial before. As for submitting the comment separately, I'm not altogether sure it can stand alone, but thanks again.

I can't decide which I like better, the rose or the haiku :)


Very good shot, I love the variations of color you managed to capture, it is both subtle and dramatic at the same time. SLR?

Thank you so much! I experience the world as a synthesis with images calling forth words and words creating music and music evoking colours, so to be told that both the image and the words touched you is a joy to me.

Actually, this shot was made with a consumer-grade Nikon digital camera, and I can take little credit for it; serendipity ruled that day and things just came together.
