I am so impressed by Bob's recent postings that I simply had to try. No, it will never compete, but it is something I wouldn't have attempted otherwise. It counts, for me personally, as a success.
Thanks Bob.

Interesting title - it piqued my curiosity immediately. Before I opened it, I was wondering what it was that I had compelled another human being to do. You can imagine my relief when I saw the beautiful flowers.

Thanks for looking in. I suppose it was my way of publicly saying than you for your images which, in the literal sense for me, are inspiring. Don't forget, one day I might be as good as you!! lol

With permission from Nairiam, I have modified the background somewhat and added some texture to the flower blossoms. I think his original image stands very well on its own, and my rendition is merely another view of a beautiful subject. Bob

I'm glad I gave you something to work on! You seem to be getting the hang of it now, Bob! lol
Amazing what a few touches of the Master makes.
Thank you so much for the time and effort you have made to rescue a poor soul in distress. If I go on another 50 years, I will have been taking pictures for 100 years. I may have improved by then!
