I robbed a neighbours garden.

I was walking home with a pathetic wilting bunch of wild flowers to photograph, which incidentally on research turned out to be "Apple of Peru" a deadly poisinous plant belonging to the deadly nightshade family. They are now safely in the dustbin, when a neighbour invited me into their garden to pick some of their flowers. I thought this one was rather pretty.
C&C always welcome. It was taken on my new Panasonic GF1.

Lovely saturated colours, not sure about the marks (fingerprints?) at the bottom of the background though!

No they weren't fingerprints, They were creases in the material. I must clone them out.

REally like this but the marks onthe back gound at the bottom and above the flower draw my eye away..sorry.

looks good - think this would look great on a slightly reflective background - like a bit of black perspex?

The marks weren't marks but shadows.
