Simply beautiful.

Love the treatment you have given the background. Colours are superb.

One out of the top drawer Maureen, nothing more to say

Well it is very nice indeedy. I thought that maybe there had been a very subtle smoothing/softening thing done to achieve that very attractive blur to the background. I see it was the 'nifty 50' at f1.8 .... just goes to show what a great little lens it is.

I think you have a competition winner with this one Maureen.

Really nice Maureen, I love the colours and the way the background leads right to the rose. Shows how good that little lens is.

Well done and thanks for sharing.

Peter.
