Great shot, Murry! I like both of them. I also like the layers, colours and textures. #813692Cathy Gregor September 30, 2004
Really good eye on this one, Murry. Love the color, lines, DOF. Like both.Duane Carter September 30, 2004
Beautiful, Murry!!!! I love the multiple planes created by the different colors and textures of the plants. I think I prefer the buzzed rendition, because it seems to simplify it. #813800Mellanie September 30, 2004
I think this is very pretty, Murry! I think the buzzed version is the better of the two, IMO!!! #813818Murry Grigsby September 30, 2004

Hi Murry! Love the range of colors and textures. I would choose the buzzed version also because it seems to do a great job of grouping each type of flower. Nice work either way! #813888Dale Gast September 30, 2004
