Default Gorse Bloom 2

Photographers Comments
Out for a walk this afternoon and came across some nice colours and shapes. The gorse are in bloom so more flowers - must be getting old! This is a second (variagated?) variety.

Peter, it's a very nice capture. The DoF is superb. Great colours and I do like the sunlight shining through from the rear of the petals. The only thing detraction for me is that as the backdrop is made up of the same patches of red and yellow colour then the main subject tends to blend into it a little. It's not 'lost' in the background but it doesn't help it stand out either.

Cheers, Dave B.
